Estimation of the Knee Flexion-Extension Angle During Dynamic Sport Motions Using Body-worn Inertial Sensors
Motion analysis has become an important tool for athletes to improve their performance. However, most motion analysis systems are expensive and can only be used in a laboratory environment. Ambulatory motion analysis systems using inertial sensors would allow more flexible use, e.g. in a real training environment or even during competitions. This paper presents the calculation of the flexion-ex...
متن کاملInertial sensor-based knee flexion/extension angle estimation.
A new method for estimating knee joint flexion/extension angles from segment acceleration and angular velocity data is described. The approach uses a combination of Kalman filters and biomechanical constraints based on anatomical knowledge. In contrast to many recently published methods, the proposed approach does not make use of the earth's magnetic field and hence is insensitive to the comple...
متن کاملKnee extension torque during repeated knee extension-flexion reversals and separated knee extension-flexion dyads.
I measured the knee extension torque, produced by eight hemiparetic patients during repeated knee extension-flexion reversals and during separated knee extension-flexion dyads, to determine the effect of "reversal of antagonists" on knee extension torque. The hemiparesis in these eight patients was secondary to intracranial lesions. I tested their involved lower extremity on an isokinetic dynam...
متن کاملIdentifying the Functional Flexion-extension Axis of the Knee: An In-Vivo Kinematics Study
PURPOSE This study aimed to calculate the flexion-extension axis (FEA) of the knee through in-vivo knee kinematics data, and then compare it with two major anatomical axes of the femoral condyles: the transepicondylar axis (TEA) defined by connecting the medial sulcus and lateral prominence, and the cylinder axis (CA) defined by connecting the centers of posterior condyles. METHODS The knee k...
متن کاملAssessment of walker-assisted gait based on Principal Component Analysis and wireless inertial sensors
Introduction: This study investigates a gait research protocol to assess the impact of a walker model with forearm supports on the kinematic parameters of the lower limb during locomotion. Methods: Thirteen healthy participants without any history of gait dysfunction were enrolled in the experimental procedure. Spatiotemporal and kinematic gait parameters were calculated by using wireless inert...
