A Skin‐Adherent Magneto‐Inertial Wearable for Real‐Time Joint Motion Analysis

open access: yesAdvanced Sensor Research, EarlyView.
An imperceptible magneto‐inertial wearable couples a skin‐adherent PDMS‐NdFeB patch with a 9‐DoF IMU to track joint kinematics in real time and classify range‐of‐motion (Limited/Normal/Hypermobile) via a 1D‐CNN (95.3% accuracy). Wireless BLE streaming and a mobile app enable feedback.
