Abstract

An inertial measurement system is described in this study. In the first part of the paper history and gait cycle terminology are described and a relevant research is made. The system is used for an analysis of human gait and determination of its major parameters. Several inertial measurement units (IMUs) are attached to subject’s feet. The program is used to analyze original signals from the IMUs. The analysis algorithm is described in detail. Performed experiments and the ways the data were analyzed are also described. The paper also includes the statistical estimation of the data.
