Distinguishing Sitting and Standing Activities Using a Wearable Barometric Pressure Monitor
Kamiar Aminian, Anisoara Ionescu, Julien Chardonnens, Fabien Massé, Alan Kevin Bourke
Recent advancements in wearable inertial sensor technology have enabled extensive research into activity classification. However, the distinction between the sitting and standing activities using trunk-worn wearable monitoring systems remains challenging, ...
2013Automatic Front-Crawl Temporal Phase Detection Using Adaptive Filtering of Inertial Signals
Kamiar Aminian, Grégoire Millet, Farzin Dadashi, Florent Crettenand
This study introduces a novel approach for automatic temporal phase detection and inter-arm coordination estimation in front-crawl swimming using inertial measurement units (IMUs). We examined the validity of our method by comparison against a video-based ...
Taylor & Francis2013Inertial measurement unit and biomechanical analysis of swimming: an update
Kamiar Aminian, Grégoire Millet, Farzin Dadashi
The biomechanical analysis of swimming always faced impeding factors of measurement in the aquatic environment. Our current knowledge of swimming locomotion is very much owing to employing video cameras to capture the body kinematics. Nevertheless, the rec ...
2013In-field objective evaluation and analysis in ski jumping using inertial sensors
Ski jumping, a prestigious Olympic discipline, has been constantly evolving. Over the years, the biomechanics fundamentals of this highly technical sport have been intensively documented by investigating the jump timing, kinematics, dynamics and motor cont ...
EPFL2012Semantic Activity Classification Using Locomotive Signatures from Mobile Phones
Karl Aberer, Zhixian Yan, Dipanjan Chakraborty, Ho Young Jeung
We explore the use of mobile phone-generated sensor feeds to determine the high-level (i.e., at the semantic level), indoor, lifestyle activities of individuals, such as cooking & dining at home and working & having lunch at the work- place. We propose and ...
2012Physical activity of moderately impaired elderly stroke patients during rehabilitation
In older adults, physical activity (PA) is promoted for public health preventive effort. It is also a major target in the rehabilitation process. Existing assessment tools in the clinical routine do not include any aspects of PA or participation and are of ...
Iop Publishing Ltd2012optiPilot: control of take-off and landing using optic flow
Dario Floreano, Jean-Christophe Zufferey, Antoine Beyeler
Take-off and landing manoeuvres are critical for MAVs because GPS-based autopilots usually do not perceive distance to the ground or other potential obstacles. In addition, attitude estimates based on inertial sensors are often perturbed by the strong acce ...
