interface

Abstract

Current approaches to the postural assessment of horse riders is highly subjective, with a lack of
consistency between practitioners. A technology based
solution would remove the human
perspective and enable a more consistent, accurate and objective assessment to be carried out.
This paper provides preliminary insights on the use of a customised method based on contextual
inquiry for gathering contextual data in an unusual, in the wild context. This will be used to
determine a standardised data collection protocol and contextspecific
interface design for an
inertial motion sensor based rider assessment tool.
