It is well established how maintaining a correct body posture is absolutely fundamental to prevent skeleton and muscular pathologies. For instance the trunk’s postures assumed in a typical working day for who spends many hours in front of a pc-screen, or the typical motion behaviour in the classroom routine for the pupils, can even lead to some body handicaps. Accordingly, it appears obvious how the exact evaluation of assumed postures during the possible daily activities is the starting point for the adoption of related prevention expedient or the application of subsequent medical treatments. On the basis of our experience, this paper deals with the common adopted systems for measuring human postures, especially related to the torso, suggesting a complete classification scheme, and imaging new possible future scenarios for clinical applications.
