An evaluation method of complex movement of the arm during walking based on gyroscope data and angle-angle diagram

摘要: The article focuses on a technique of gyroscope data processing and quantifying movement patterns upper limb during walking. Four cheap gyroscopes were used. Using novel method based the trajectory length obtained by plotting shoulder elbow joint angle vs. each other, provides information for quantification complex arm as whole in sagittal plane. Two parameters evaluation motion, (TL) traditional range motion (ROM), used to analyze simple rhythmical identified application possibilities new parameter. Pearsons correlation coefficient indicates very strong between TL ROM (r>0.8) both dominant non-dominant limb. Also, body height or was studied. negligible (r<0.2). This shows versatility proposed
