ABSTRACT (PDF)

Human movement measurement provides objective information about movement disorders and thus is widely applied for clinical evaluations. Despite the accuracy of gait laboratory equipment, there is limited measurement space in most gait laboratories. In-field movement measurement using wearable sensors is preferred for clinical evaluations because it allows for long-term testing during daily life. In addition, wearable sensor technology allows for real-time clinical applications such as falling prevention and mobile health monitoring during daily life. This presentation will introduce a systematic approach to the development of wearable systems for daily activity monitoring. Examples of the developed wearable technologies, their validation against in-lab equipment, and their suitability for clinical evaluation of movement disorders will be discussed.
