    Wow! With sensors... And data logging capability... It is easy to see how this could help a person re-learn how to accomplish basic movements. And for that matter, help keep records of daily, weekly, monthly progress on what motion the person is able to make happen.

    Yes, it is our hope that we will be able to crowdsource sensors and data logging capability. We're working on those issues on the side and are in need of app developers to help out. Anyone want to volunteer?
