Gait and Foot Clearance Parameters Obtained Using Shoe-Worn Inertial Sensors in a Large-Population Sample of Older Adults

Kamiar Aminian, Farzin Dadashi, Benoît Mariani

In order to distinguish dysfunctional gait; clinicians require a measure of reference gait parameters for each population. This study provided normative values for widely used parameters in more than 1400 able-bodied adults over the age of 65. We also meas ...

On-shoe wearable sensors for gait and turning assessment of patients with Parkinson’s disease

Kamiar Aminian, Benoît Mariani

Assessment of locomotion through simple tests such as timed up and go (TUG) or walking trials can provide valuable information for the evaluation of treatment and the early diagnosis of people with Parkinson's disease (PD). Common methods used in clinics a ...

Quantitative estimation of foot-flat and stance phase of gait using foot-worn inertial sensors

Kamiar Aminian, Xavier Crevoisier, Hossein Rouhani, Benoît Mariani

Time periods composing stance phase of gait can be clinically meaningful parameters to reveal differences between normal and pathological gait. This study aimed, first, to describe a novel method for detecting stance and inner-stance temporal events based ...

Heel and Toe Clearance Estimation for Gait Analysis Using Wireless Inertial Sensors

Kamiar Aminian, Benoît Mariani

Tripping is considered a major cause of fall in older people. Therefore, foot clearance (i.e., height of the foot above ground during swing phase) could be a key factor to better understand the complex relationship between gait and falls. This paper presen ...

Assessment of Foot Signature Using Wearable Sensors for Clinical Gait Analysis and Real-Time Activity Recognition

Benoît Mariani

Locomotion is one of the most important abilities of humans. Actually, gait locomotion provides mobility, and symbolizes freedom and independence. However, gait can be affected by several pathologies, due to aging, neurodegenerative disease, or trauma. The ...

Foot worn inertial sensors for gait assessment and rehabilitation based on motorized shoes

Kamiar Aminian, Anisoara Ionescu, Benoît Mariani

Fall prevention in elderly subjects is often based on training and rehabilitation programs that include mostly traditional balance and strength exercises. By applying such conventional interventions to improve gait performance and decrease fall risk, some ...

3D gait assessment in young and elderly subjects using foot-worn inertial sensors

Kamiar Aminian, Benoît Mariani

This study describes the validation of a new wearable system for assessment of 3D spatial parameters of gait. The new method is based on the detection of temporal parameters, coupled to optimized fusion and de-drifted integration of inertial signals. Compo ...
