SOL SideKick™ Gait Analysis System Purchased by Air Force

Nov. 7, 2011 - PRLog -- Medical Motion - http://www.medicalmotion.pro is pleased to announce that the new SOL SideKick™ gait analysis system has been selected for use at the Mountain Home Air Force Base (southwestern Idaho) for their Health And Wellness Center (HAWC).

The SOL SideKick™ - http://www.medicalmotion.pro/portable-lab-systems/201-sol-sidekick will be used to provide vital information regarding video motion and gait analysis of military personnel.  With this portable system, the staff can easily record the movements of the personnel, either indoors or outdoors.  In addition to recording on the treadmill for Gait Analysis, personnel can be recorded in other activities that may cause movement issues.  Slow motion analysis of personnel during the training for the United States Air Force Fitness Test can identify areas for improvement and injury prevention.  Ergonomic evaluations of repetitive movements can be recorded and reviewed in Medical Motion’s video motion gait analysis software for corrective actions.

The SOL SideKick™ is a lightweight wireless visual communication tool for motion analysis.  It allows you to see high speed movement in ultra-slow motion.  This technology maximizes skill development, injury prevention and injury recovery while minimizing the injuries and helping to identify areas for adjustment.  The results are healthier and more skilled military personnel.  

With the sunlight readable netbook LCD - http://www.solcomputer.com/sunlight-readable-netbook.html on the SOL SideKick™, the system can be used anywhere, the brighter the sunlight the better!  With an ordinary LCD display, the light is provided by a lamp behind the display screen and consumes half the power just for backlighting.  A reflective display has no backlight and is illuminated by ambient light so it uses very little power and is viewable in direct sunlight. This Pixel Qi Adaptive screen allows the SOL SideKick™ to display quality full-color images, full motion video, and high screen brightness.  This technology allows you to go from sunlight to darkness with no loss of readability.  Also, netbook battery consumption is reduced by 80% when used in bright light conditions.
