Development of a wearable framework for the assessment of a mechanical-based indicator of falling risk in the field
Abstract : This paper presents both normative thresholds of the distance of
the Body Center of Mass (BCOM) to the Minimal Moment Axis
(MMA) during able-bodied level walking that can be used as a proxy
of whole-body angular momentum variations to characterize the
instability of gait and a wearable framework to assess this indicator
in the field. The results are based on experimental analysis of the
gait of able-bodied subject from a motion capture system and on a
preliminary comparison of wearable-based against optoelectronic-
based assessment of gait instability in one asymptomatic subject and
one person with transfemoral amputation.
