Which of the following is NOT an advantage of using electrogoniometers over universal
goniometers and digital goniometers?
Electrogoniometers are easier to use because the technician's hands are free.
Electrogoniometers are flexible instead of rigid.
Measurements have been shown to be almost twice as accurate when using the
electrogoiometer over a universal goniometer.
Measurements can be made in two planes simultaneously with the 2-channel
electrogoniometers. - Answers - ✔✔Measurements have been shown to be almost
twice as accurate when using the electrogoiometer over a universal goniometer.
