Gait Event Detection in the Real World
Healthy gait requires a balance between various neuro-physiological systems and is considered an important indicator of a subject’s physical and cognitive health status. As such, health-related applications would immensely benefit by performing long-term or continuous monitoring of subjects’ gait in their natural environment and everyday lives. In contrast to stationary sensors such as motion c...
متن کاملA portable, real-time, clinical gait velocity analysis system.
A direct ultrasound ranging system (DURS) has been developed for the quantitative evaluation of gait velocity. DURS consists of a transponder worn by the subject, a base unit infrared (IR) emitter/ultrasound (US) receiver, and a laptop computer. During gait analysis the transponder is worn by the subject at the approximate level of the body center of mass. As the subject walks away from the bas...
متن کاملDeveloping and Validating a New Wireless Wearable Device for Balance Measurement in Sport and Clinical Setting
One of the new clinical techniques to assess the lower body parameters is the wearable ultrasonic sensors. The device which can measure the static and dynamic balance abilities in sport and clinical setting by the traveled signals of ultrasonic transmitter and receiver between two feet was developed and validated. The new device consisted of a pressure gauge and a digital centimeter indicator a...
متن کاملHidden altruism in a real-world setting
Concerns for reputation can promote cooperative behaviour. Individuals that behave cooperatively stand to benefit if they gain in influence, status or are more likely to be chosen as interaction partners by others. Most theoretical and empirical models of cooperation predict that image score will increase with cooperative contributions. Individuals are therefore expected to make higher contribu...
متن کاملMotor and psychosocial impact of robot-assisted gait training in a real-world rehabilitation setting: A pilot study
In the last decade robotic devices have been applied in rehabilitation to overcome walking disability in neurologic diseases with promising results. Robot assisted gait training (RAGT) using the Lokomat seems not only to improve gait parameters but also the perception of well-being. Data on the psychosocial patient-robot impact are limited, in particular in the real-world of RAGT, in the rehabi...
