Outline of Final Research Achievements

The purpose of this study was (1) to develop a system of markerless motion capture using a smart phone and a tablet computer, (2) to enable real time kinematic analysis, (3) to utilize the data obtained using wearable inertia sensors for motion analysis and (4) to develop a motion database for real time assessment of the obtained data. We successfully developed software and hardware systems to accomplish these goals.
