This paper describes the use of strain measurement interfaced through a computer graphic animated display for the purpose of obtaining from a child patient accurate data of physical disability. The animated display is also used as a means of retaining and stimulating interest in the child during the series of exercises that this interfaced system would be capable of, monitoring and recording the results at the same time.
