The biomechanical study of human limbs movement using inertial and electromyographic sensors

M. Ivanova, T. Chikova

Abstract: Recent technological developments have made it possible to create portable and inexpensive sensors with great potential that have changed the clinical practice of rehabilitation. Purpose: to create a software and hardware complex for the rehabilitation of patients with movement disorders, which combines the determination of the position of segments of the human body and the assessment of muscle tension. A comparative analysis of the created wearable device "MonSys" with a commercial user device "Callibry Biofeedback" from the Neurotech company was carried out. The data obtained made it possible to make sure that in the future, the development proposed by the authors can be used for people with locomotor disorders.
