Outline of Final Research Achievements

The purpose of this research was to develop a posture estimation system during standing-up motion, with consideration for daily use and clinical use. The system which included an inertial sensor on a chest, pressure sensors and ultrasonic sensors on a shoe and signal processing software, was developed. As the results, our system could estimate posture during standing-up from combining all sensor data and a human body linkage model, moreover muscle output could be estimated from the posture. However, muscle output could not be estimated in real-time operation.
