FIGUR8 technology seamlessly incorporates hardware, software, and biomechanics AI to accurately analyze musculoskeletal (MSK) health. My role in this project was to design the web portal where clinicians would view and analyze client data.

MSK biomechanical data can be complicated and often takes time to digest, even for trained experts. The challenge was to take that data and present it in a way that helps a clinician make faster and better decisions.
With insight from the resident clinician on the science team I defined the user as busy clinicians that need to quickly and accurately pull useful insight from a client’s data. Afterwards I identified the needs the clinician would have if using the product.
Effective data visualization
Longitudinal data
Understanding key metrics at a glance
Insight at high and low levels
The focus of this project was specifically for whiplash injuries, so I collaborated with our science and research team to understand what are the key things that clinicians look for when examining whiplash. From there we worked to categorize the metrics into meaningful categories.
Sitting Posture
Standing Posture
Neck Flexion / Extension
Neck lateral side bend Left & Right
Neck rotation L & R
Shoulder flexion L & R
Shoulder flexion symmetry
Upper trapezius output symmetry
Upper trapezius rate of contraction
Neck elevation endurance
Shoulder elevation endurance
I designed the workflow to mirror how a clinician would typically approach a client assessment. A high level summary of the assessment is first shown allowing the clinician to quickly identify areas of concern, and then zooming in to understand all the details. Longitudinal data allows the clinician to identify trends to see if treatment is effective and the client is recovering.
Understanding the client’s overall movement
Understanding the quality of the movement
Understanding client recovery
Summary view provide a high level overview of the metrics defined above. Each card provides a snapshot of how the client performed and how it compares to the previous assessment.
Provides indepth data about how the client moved through time and insight into the quality of that movement.
Track and understand client trends to better determine if treatment is effective and recovery is on track.
