Human gait symmetry and coordination assessment during treadmill walking using wearable ultrasonic sensors network

This report investigates the effectiveness of a Wireless Network System using Ultrasonic Sensors in studying the human gait symmetry. Unscented Kalman Filter is being used to extract the gait parameters which is then validated against the results of a Motion Capture System. The system comprises of 2...
