Walking is instinctual and, like breathing, you don't think about how you do it. When dealing with pain, disabilities, or recovery, walking posture is vital to maintain good walking health for the long term. The WalkWell sensor and app take on the task of thinking about your walking for you, alerting you to abnormalities or gait changes that could harm you. 

Many assessment and diagnoses for different diseases are reliant on gait, but unbiased data is difficult to get when walking tests are performed in motion capture labs where patient participants are in uncertain new environments and know they're being observed.
