This paper proposes the mobile assessment system for shoulder joint rehabilitation. To monitor the patient’s condition during the rehabilitation process, it is necessary to assess the initial condition and monitor the progress before and after the treatment. For the assessment, the shoulder joint angle in certain positions needs to be measured. The proposed system measures and assesses the patient’s joint angles in four different positions using smart sensors embedded in the smartphones such as the accelerometer and the gyroscope. The performance of the proposed system is evaluated by comparing the assessment results with measurements using the goniometer.
