The hip joint's range of motion (ROM) is an important clinical parameter used in hip assessment.[1]Hip flexion is one of the hip motions that can be measured with a goniometer. The goniometer can simply measure the joint angles. It has some limitations not allowing the clinician to analyse the ROM and track the hip joint during eg walking or maximum squat. Motion capture devices are mainly used to analyse the patient's gait and assess the condition of the joints and bones.[1]
