Move It to Prove It! Walk, Stretch, and Discover Mobility
Mobility is vital for maintaining independence, health, and quality of life, yet millions face challenges that impact their ability to move freely. Whether due to injury, aging, or chronic conditions, reduced mobility affects overall well-being.
At our interactive activity, you'll not only learn about these issues but also experience the importance of mobility first-hand.
Take on two exciting challenges designed to test your balance, coordination, and endurance:
1. Walk the Line: Can you walk in a narrow, straight line faster than anyone else? Test your focus and precision!
2. Knee Stretch Challenge: How long can you hold a knee stretch? Compete with friends, family, or fellow visitors to find out who has the best endurance.
Through these challenges, you'll gain insights into how researchers use biomechanics and wearable sensors to understand movement and to help assess mobility.
Perfect for all ages, this engaging activity will leave you inspired by how science and engineering use quantitative measurement, like knee and ankle range of motion, to support the evaluation of musculoskeletal joint function.
