Area of Science:

  • Biomechanics
  • Wearable Technology
  • Human Motion Analysis

Background:

  • Posture recognition technology has advanced significantly.
  • Camera-based systems face limitations like spatial constraints and occlusion.
  • Accurate human motion analysis is crucial for sports, rehabilitation, and injury prevention.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a novel posture angle calculation system using a single inertial measurement unit (IMU).
  • To accurately identify 3D motion angles and postures of human upper and lower limbs.
  • To provide a wearable solution for continuous body movement monitoring without camera-based limitations.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized a single inertial measurement unit (IMU) and a spatial geometric equation.
  • Employed a filtering mechanism to calculate the sensor's 3D trajectory and coordinates.
  • Devised a spatial geometry equation for computing joint angles during posture changes.

Main Results:

  • The system accurately calculates 3D motion angles and postures using a single IMU.
  • Comparison with dual IMUs showed joint angle discrepancies within 10°.
  • Validation against image recognition technology yielded discrepancies within 5°.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed system offers a reliable and accurate method for estimating joint angles.
  • This wearable technology provides continuous monitoring without spatial limitations.
  • The system is a valuable tool for assessing movement accuracy, preventing injuries, and enhancing sports performance.
