Abstract
A hypertonicity measuring device comprises at least one wearable item. The hypertonicity measuring device comprises at least one communication pathway. The at least one communication pathway is configured to communicate with a processing device. The hypertonicity measuring device comprises a sensor array. The sensor array is disposed to the at least one wearable item. The sensor array comprises a plurality of capacitive pressure sensors. The sensor array is configured to communicate capacitive pressure sensor data to the processing device employing the at least one communication pathway. The plurality of capacitive pressure sensors comprises at least one structured dielectric. The hypertonicity measuring device comprises an inertial measurement unit. The inertial measurement unit is disposed to the at least one wearable item. The inertial measurement unit is configured to communicate motion data to the processing device employing the at least one communication pathway.
