Lower limb motor function is important for activities of daily living. Since gait movements of elderly subjects differ from those of young people, gait measurement is considered to be effective for evaluating lower limb motor function. In this paper, focusing on foot movements during gait, a method of evaluating 3-dimentional movements of the foot during walking was examined. Gait movements were measured...
Widespread use of affective sensing in healthcare applications has been limited due to several practical factors, such as lack of comfortable wearable sensors, lack of wireless standards, and lack of low-power affordable hardware. In this paper, we present a new low-cost, low-power wireless sensor platform implemented using the IEEE 802.15.4 wireless standard, and describe the design of compact wearable...
In this paper we describe a wireless wearable system to monitor gait, based on a customized pair of commercial insoles able to collect ground reaction forces by use of 24 embedded cells for each foot. Each insole was combined with a small form factor, low-power Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) and enabled to communicate via Bluetooth with a base station. We present here the characterization of the...
