A shift of center of pressure (CoP) is an indirect measure of postural sway and thus a measure of a person’s ability to maintain balance. Though originally designed as a video game controller, the Balance Board has become a tool for assessing CoP which has proven to be both valid and reliable. Clark et al. performed a study to prove the validity and test-retest reliability of the use of a Balance Board. The reason to use a Balance Board instead of a force platform is the ability to "create a portable, inexpensive balance assessment system that has widespread availability." Four standing balance tasks were used in this study including a combination of double stance, single stance, eyes open, and eyes closed. Throughout these tests the center of pressure path length was measured and compared to data from an identical study on a laboratory-grade force platform. The study found Balance Board measurements to be reliable and consistently repeatable. [14] Use to improve balance [ edit ] Wii Fit has been used for physiotherapy rehabilitation, and gaming rehabilitation [11] [12] and has been adopted by various health clubs around the world.

The same thing happens in the strain gauges -- they get longer while their cross-sectional area gets smaller. Because of the changes to length and diameter in the wire, its electrical resistance increases. The change in electrical resistance is converted into a change in voltage, and the sensors use this information to figure out how much pressure you applied to the board, or how much you weigh.

Not all Wii fit balance interventions have been game-based. Shih[ 42], for example, used a unique approach that encouraged individuals with Cerebral Palsy to become more aware of their COP location. In this experiment, a customized WBB setup was used to activate participants’ favorite television programs when standing on the board with their COP centered between the feet. Deviation from this ideal resulted in the television program being turned off. Even though the participants had reduced cognitive abilities, they were able to implicitly learn COP control over multiple trials and keep the television on for longer periods of time than normal. An increased percentage of trials with the desired COP location were also found in retention trials with the television stimulus constantly on. Efficacy of Wii Fit-based interventions In May 2010, the AHA endorsed the Wii to encourage sedentary people to take the first step toward fitness. The AHA heart icon covers the console itself along with two of its more active games, Wii Fit Plus and Wii Sports Resort.
