Abstract
Isokinetics systems are now a leading technology for assessing muscle strength and diagnosing muscle injuries. These systems are very expensive, for which reason they should be put to the best possible use. However, the computer interfaces that come with isokinetics systems are extremely poor and do not provide for the system to be exploited to its full potential. This paper presents the project 14 (Interface for Intelligent Interpretation of Isokinetic Data) and two computer systems obtained in the project: ISODEPOR and ISOCIN Both applications provide simple and effective interaction with the LIDO Isokinetics Machine, that produces a huge amount of strength data in each isokinetics test. These data are interpreted and presented to the user, who interacts with the information by means of a powerful graphic display system. Additionally, the applications have been equipped with a series of intelligent strength data analysis functions that implement expertise.
