Measurement of Axial Rigidity and Postural Instability Using Wearable Sensors
Axial Bradykinesia is an important feature of advanced Parkinson's disease (PD). The purpose of this study is to quantify axial bradykinesia using wearable sensors with the long-term aim of quantifying these movements, while the subject performs routine domestic activities. We measured back movements during common daily activities such as pouring, pointing, walking straight and walking around a...
متن کاملGait Analysis Using Wearable Sensors
Gait analysis using wearable sensors is an inexpensive, convenient, and efficient manner of providing useful information for multiple health-related applications. As a clinical tool applied in the rehabilitation and diagnosis of medical conditions and sport activities, gait analysis using wearable sensors shows great prospects. The current paper reviews available wearable sensors and ambulatory...
متن کاملMethod for measuring tri-axial lumbar motion angles using wearable sheet stretch sensors
BACKGROUND Body movements, such as trunk flexion and rotation, are risk factors for low back pain in occupational settings, especially in healthcare workers. Wearable motion capture systems are potentially useful to monitor lower back movement in healthcare workers to help avoid the risk factors. In this study, we propose a novel system using sheet stretch sensors and investigate the system val...
متن کاملActivity and Location Recognition Using Wearable Sensors
C ontext awareness—determining a person’s current location and recognizing what he or she is doing—is a key functionality in many pervasive computing applications. Locationsensing techniques are based on either relative or absolute position measurements.1 Much of the current research in this area, described in the “Related Work” sidebar, uses absolute-measurement–based approaches (also called r...
متن کاملJogging and Walking Analysis Using Wearable Sensors
Gait analysis is a process of learning the motion of human and animal by using wearable sensor approach and vision approach. This analysis is mainly used in medical and sports field where the study of body parts is crucial. 3-space sensor is a sensor consists of accelerometer, gyroscope sensor and compass sensor, built in one device. In this study, 3-space sensor is used to collect data of walk...
