The paper proposes a concept of a movement diagnostics system of enhanced performances. The existing system, using electromyographic (EMG) and ground reaction force signals as inputs, has been applied primarily to sports locomotion evaluation and testing, providing suitable quantitative criteria. The proposed enhancement relies on movement simulation facility, incorporating subject-specific anatomical and functional data on the neuro-musculo-skeletal system of extremities. Reflecting the principles of anthropomorphic robotics, the computer graphics simulation is conceptualized to generate artificial (synthesized) movement patterns in virtual reality.

By comparing synthesized and measured signals the suitable feedback information is provided that may be used to enhance the overall system's performance. Using the power of computer technology and computer graphics, a user-friendly system of high ergonomic potentials is thus devised, in order to enhance the quality and efficacy of diagnostic procedure. The bioengineering principles used and the merging of measurement with simulation in the process of operation define a powerful instrument applicable to both healthy and pathological movement assessment.
