- 29 Apr 2026
We’ve started development of the Web App integration, which consists of a clinician-ready dashboard that displays the gait metrics from a given phisiotherapy session. As was the case with our private Python test scripts, the user can select a saved csv file, containing the IMU data from that session, on top of which the fusion algorythms will be applied to compute the metrics.
