Test your balance.
See the difference.

Upload two 40‑second accelerometer recordings — eyes open and eyes closed — and compare your postural stability side by side.

Get started

Record & Upload

Upload both recordings

Use Sensor Logger with the phone held chest-height (crossed arms). Record ~40 seconds for each condition, then export the Accelerometer CSV.

Eyes Open

Baseline — control

Upload the CSV from your eyes‑open standing trial

Eyes Closed

Test — impaired

Upload the CSV from your eyes‑closed standing trial

Auto‑trim enabled — the first and last 5 seconds of each recording are discarded to remove phone handling artifacts.

Comparison

Eyes open vs. eyes closed

Side‑by‑side analysis of postural stability. Larger divergence in the closed‑eye condition indicates stronger reliance on vision for balance.

Sway magnitude — overlay

Total sway √(x²+y²+z²) for both conditions on a common time axis (trimmed)

Eyes open
Eyes closed

Sway path — eyes open

X vs Y acceleration — axes auto‑scaled to data range

Sway path — eyes closed

X vs Y acceleration — axes auto‑scaled to data range

3‑axis acceleration — overlay

X, Y, Z channels for both conditions. Solid = eyes open, dashed = eyes closed

Rolling RMS sway — divergence

1‑second rolling window RMS. The shaded gap between curves shows where balance degrades with eyes closed

Eyes open
Eyes closed

Sway distribution — comparison

Overlaid histograms of sway magnitude

Sway delta (closed − open)

Positive values (red) = more sway when eyes are closed

Learn

Understanding balance

Balance relies on three sensory systems working together. Explore the science behind the test.

What is balance?

Vision, the vestibular system, and proprioception combine to keep you upright. Learn how each contributes.

Loss of balance

Neurological, sensory, and fatigue‑related factors that can affect postural stability.

The Romberg Test

A classic neurological exam for proprioception. Understand its clinical purpose and interpretation limits.

About

What is Romberger?

Romberger is an educational tool — not a diagnostic device. Record two standing trials, upload the CSVs, and see how removing visual input affects your postural stability. Inspired by the clinical Romberg test.
