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.
