Active movement-assistive devices aim to increase the quality of life for patients with
neuromusculoskeletal disorders. This technology requires interaction between the user and …

Most gait training systems are designed for acute and subacute neurological inpatients.
Many systems are used for relearning gait movements (nonfunctional training) or gait cycle …

Inertial measurement units (IMUs) are a promising tool for realtime analysis of human motion
in many application domains. We consider the standard sensor fusion problem in IMU …

Inertial‐based motion capture (IMC) has been suggested to overcome many of the
limitations of traditional motion capture systems. The validity of IMC is, however, suggested …
