Force Plate Technology

Force plate technology is a specialized device used to measure the forces exerted by the body during movement. It consists of a flat platform equipped with sensors that detect how much force is applied in different directions when a person stands, jumps, or walks on it. This data helps researchers and clinicians analyze balance, stability, and the mechanics of movement. Force plates are commonly used in sports science, rehabilitation, and biomechanics to assess an individual’s performance, identify potential injuries, and develop targeted training or recovery programs.
