...Zhelong Wang; Sen Qiu; Zhongkai Cao; Ming Jiang Purpose Due to the complex mechanism during walking, human gait takes plenty of information reflecting human motion. The method of quantitative measurement of gait makes a profound influence in many fields, such as clinical medicine, biped robot...

..., all sensors have a measurable range limit. If the object is bigger than the measurable range, it is impossible to recognize the object's shape. However, this sensor system compensates for this problem due to a combination of sensor unit's motion and robot's motion. The robot's DOF are ordinarily used...

...Jeff Newman; Huiyu Zhou; Huosheng Hu Purpose This paper seeks to present an inertial motion tracking system for monitoring movements of human upper limbs in order to support a home‐based rehabilitation scheme in which the recovery of stroke patients' motor function through repetitive exercises...

... surveillance, advanced human‐computer interactions, monitoring. This paper presents statistical computer vision approaches to automatically recognize different human activities. Design/methodology/approach The human activity recognition process has three steps: firstly human blobs are segmented by motion...

... Claimed to be the world's smallest PIR (passive infrared) sensor, the MP motion sensor from Matsushita Electric Works is now available in an analogue output model which enables sensitivity to be adjusted in accordance with application requirements (Plate 9). The analogue device's...
