BalancePy documentation
=======================

This Python package provides a set of tools for simulating and analyzing
balance behavior in humans using systems identification methods. It accompanies 
the virtual reality software package Anaropia, which can be used with standard 
VR devices to collect the data that can be analzed using this Python package.
The package is developed by Lorenz Assländer and Matthias Albrecht from the 
University of Konstanz.
It builds on the work of Peterka et al. [1]_ and Assländer et al. [2]_.
