In this work we present the smart knee prosthesis designed for in-vivo kinematics measurement and its validation in two knee simulators, i.e. a robotic knee simulator to provide realistic condition, and a manual simulator with more degrees of freedom. The ...

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 ...

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 ...

An effortless procedure to align the local frame of an inertial measurement unit to the local frame of another motion capture system

Kamiar Aminian, Julien Favre, Julien Chardonnens

Inertial measurement units (IMUs) offer great opportunities to analyze segmental and joints kinematics. When combined with another motion capture system (MCS), for example, to validate new IMU-based applications or to develop mixed systems, it is necessary ...

Automatic measurement of key ski jumping phases and temporal events with a wearable system

Kamiar Aminian, Julien Favre, Julien Chardonnens, Benoît Le Callennec

Abstract We propose a new method, based on inertial sensors, to automatically measure at high frequency the durations of the main phases of ski jumping (i.e. take-off release, take-off, and early flight). The kinematics of the ski jumping movement were rec ...

We analyze mobile phone-generated sensor feeds to de- termine 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 workplace. We pro- pose and evaluate a 2 ...

Changes in turning are one of the early motor deficiencies in Parkinson's Disease (PD). We have proposed a system based on wearable, inertial sensors and a novel automatic analysis algorithm that can assess 180 degrees turns. Twelve patients in early stage ...

Accurate Trajectory and Orientation of a Motorcycle derived from low-cost Satellite and Inertial Measurement Systems

Jan Skaloud, Alain Schorderet, Christophe Prongué

Inertially aided satellite positioning can bring its benefits to all disciplines in which detailed knowledge of the trajectory is a prerequisite for improving performance. In motorcycling for instance, the determination of slips of tires requires the deter ...
