This paper presents an approach on measurement of impacts absorption level on legs in a walking situation, by using 3-axis accelerometer sensor attached on three essential part of body. To measure this levels of impact on ankle and waist, developed a microcontroller based portable wireless sensing and data acquisition system. Comparing between, both impacts received at ankle to the impact receive...
To support an Oak Ridge National Laboratory programs exoskeleton project, a unique multi-axis foot force/torque sensor was constructed and tested that has biomedical application such as clinical gait analysis. The challenging aspect of this multi-axis force sensor is that it had to conform to the bending of the human foot, withstand high impact loads, have high force sensitivity, feel comfortable...
Physical therapists treat many patients with decreased strength, mobility, and weight bearing tolerance. In order to maximize rehabilitation, therapists must utilize early progressive controlled mobilization, as Wolff's and Davis' law describe. The system has been designed to precisely and quantitatively measure a patient's lower body strength and improvement, through the use of a force measurement...
