Measuring joint range of motion has traditionally occurred with a universal goniometer, inclinometer, or expensive laboratory systems. The popularity of the inertial measuremen unit (IMU) is growing, enabling the small even single portable device to measure the range of motion. Until now, they were not used to assess hip joint range of motion. Our study aimed to check the validity of IMU in assessing a hip range of motion and compare them to other measurement devices - universal goniometer and i...
