Toward a remote assessment of walking bout and speed: application in patients with multiple sclerosis

Kamiar Aminian, Farzin Dadashi, Arash Atrsaei, Benoît Mariani

Gait speed as a powerful biomarker of mobility is mostly assessed in controlled environments, e.g. in the clinic. With wearable inertial sensors, gait speed can be estimated in an objective manner. However, most of the previous works have validated the gai ...

Gait speed in clinical and daily living assessments in Parkinson’s disease patients: performance versus capacity

Kamiar Aminian, Farzin Dadashi, Arash Atrsaei, Benoît Mariani

Gait speed often referred as the sixth vital sign is the most powerful biomarker of mobility. While a clinical setting allows the estimation of gait speed under controlled conditions that present functional capacity, gait speed in real-life conditions prov ...

Continuous Analysis of Marathon Running Using Inertial Sensors: Hitting Two Walls?

Kamiar Aminian, Benoît Mariani, Mathieu Pascal Falbriard

Marathon running involves complex mechanisms that cannot be measured with objective metrics or laboratory equipment. The emergence of wearable sensors introduced new opportunities, allowing the continuous recording of relevant parameters. The present study ...

Drift-Free Foot Orientation Estimation in Running Using Wearable IMU

Kamiar Aminian, Frédéric Meyer, Mathieu Pascal Falbriard, Grégoire Millet, Benoît Mariani

This study aimed to introduce and validate a new method to estimate and correct the orientation drift measured from foot-worn inertial sensors. A modified strap-down integration (MSDI) was proposed to decrease the orientation drift, which, in turn, was fur ...

Postural transitions detection and characterization in healthy and patient populations using a single waist sensor

Kamiar Aminian, Farzin Dadashi, Benoît Mariani, Arash Atrsaei

Background: Sit-to-stand and stand-to-sit transitions are frequent daily functional tasks indicative of muscle power and balance performance. Monitoring these postural transitions with inertial sensors provides an objective tool to assess mobility in both ...

Integration of Wearable Sensors Into the Evaluation of Running Economy and Foot Mechanics in Elite Runners

Benoît Mariani, Mathieu Pascal Falbriard

Running economy, known as the steady-state oxygen consumption at a given submaximal intensity, has been proposed as one of the key factors differentiating East African runners from other running communities around the world. Kenyan runners have dominated m ...

Spatio-temporal gait analysis in children with cerebral palsy using foot-worn inertial sensors

Kamiar Aminian, Benoît Mariani

A child's natural gait pattern may be affected by the gait laboratory environment. Wearable devices using body-worn sensors have been developed for gait analysis. The purpose of this study was to validate and explore the use of foot-worn inertial sensors f ...
