| Research Abstract |
A prototype system of motion capture system using wireless inertial sensors was developed. Three dimensional motion measurement method was also developed and tested with the developed prototype system. Measurements of gait with healthy and motor disabled subjects showed that the developed system and the motion measurement method were useful. Furthermore, the developed system and the measurement method were modified based on problems found in the measurement tests. It was expected that the system would be applied practically to rehabilitation.
