SUNBEAM Module
The inclusion of the award-winning SUNBEAM protocol as an additional module in the HUR Smart Balance allows for the inclusion of evidence-based balance training. The module has been designed in collaboration with the SUNBEAM lead researcher, Dr Jennie Hewitt.
N-Back Test
With N-Back trainer you can train your working memory (= a cognitive system with a limited capacity that can hold information temporarily). Your task is to remember the sequence of cards, "is the new card same as the one which is located in the right side", and then answer yes/no by stepping in the guided direction on the platform.
Stop Signal Task
Stop Signal Task measures response inhibition (impulse control). In Stop Signal Task user is shown arrows that can point to different sides. User then steps quickly to the same direction except when a Stop Signal is shown. The task applies the stop signal delay (stop signal will be shown a little bit later than the arrow) and this will also increase the difficulty level.
Tux Kart
Tux Kart is a Kart racing game where you compete against other AI players. There are different tracks and difficulty level which user can choose.
Information is key
One of the most welcomed benefits of HUR SmartBalance software is the results explanation buttons which give more information about each parameter that is measured and also points the user towards focus areas on strength and balance training. This helps especially the new user to get acquainted with the testing and training processes and how to help their customers as well as they can.
Romberg Test
Romberg test assesses static standing balance. In this test, the same balance test is performed eyes open and eyes closed. In addition to Romberg test, there is also Limits Of Stability test available.
Balance Score
The unique Balance Scores make analysing the results much easier and prints very clear and understandable reports for the tested person. Instead of tens of parameters it focuses on only five important and descriptive parameters with colour coded traffic light indication of fall risk.
Compare and Follow-Up
The software offers comparison mode, which makes follow-up of the person's progression easy. The comparisons are also colour coded with traffic light colours so that it is easy to see and easy to show when the green level has been reached.
