Effects of hemodialysis therapy on sit-to-walk characteristics in end stage renal disease patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Patients with end stage renal diseases (ESRD) undergoing hemodialysis (HD) have high morbidity and mortality due to multiple causes; one of which is dramatically higher fall rates than the general population.

IMU-Based Classification of Locomotion Modes, Transitions, and Gait Phases with Convolutional Recurrent Neural Networks

open access: yesSensors, 2022
This paper focuses on the classification of seven locomotion modes (sitting, standing, level ground walking, ramp ascent and descent, stair ascent and descent), the transitions among these modes, and the gait phases within each mode, by only using data ...

A proximity sensor for the measurement of the inter-foot distance in static and dynamic tasks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Measuring the base of support is of paramount importance in determining human stability during gait or balance tests. While wearable inertial sensors have been successfully employed to quantify numerous gait parameters (velocity, stride length, etc ...

Systematic Calibration for Ultra-High Accuracy Inertial Measurement Units

open access: yesSensors, 2016
An inertial navigation system (INS) has been widely used in challenging GPS environments. With the rapid development of modern physics, an atomic gyroscope will come into use in the near future with a predicted accuracy of 5 × 10−6°/h or better. However,
