The use of inertial measurement units (IMUs) has gained popularity for the estimation of
lower limb kinematics. However, implementations in clinical practice are still lacking. The …

Despite the exponential growth in using inertial measurement units (IMUs) for
biomechanical studies, future growth in “inertial motion capture” is stymied by a fundamental …

Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is the most common treatment for degenerative osteoarthritis
of that articulation. However, either in rehabilitation clinics or in hospital wards, the knee …

A method for calibrating sensors applied to a patient to monitor rehabilitation is disclosed.
The calibration method according to the invention that is insensitive to changes in the …

This paper tackles the problem of the estimation of simplified human limb kinematics for
home health care. Angular kinematics are widely used for gait analysis, for rehabilitation …

Inertial motion analysis is having a growing interest during the last decades due to its
advantages over classical optical systems. The technological solution based on inertial …

Passive knee prostheses require a significant amount of additional metabolic energy to carry
out a gait cycle, therefore affecting the natural human walk performance. Current active knee …

The use of inertial measurement units (IMUs) is a low-cost alternative for measuring joint
angles. This study aims to present a low-cost open-source measurement system for joint …

There is a growing interest in measuring human activities via worn inertial sensors, and
situating two accelerometers on a body segment allows accessing rotational kinematic …
