Keep your whole body and feet in view of the camera, then follow the right and left tandem and one-leg standing tasks. See the detected posture and hold time, review a reference level based on SIDE, and view past records. Left and right refer to your own body. Partial measurements and records with no timed holds are distinguished from regular reference levels.
