Abstract:

An instrumental device that allows recording human movements without restriction was developed. Sensors that integrated an accelerometer and gyroscope to record head and body movements were used. The integration of an accelerometer with gyroscope allowed to detect the movements of the body in the sagittal, coronal and transversal planes. Tests were performed placing the sensors on the head and body to verify that the registration was correct. The results show that it is possible to detect human movements without restriction in the displacement of the body, which is very useful for different applications such as the detection of problems associated with human equilibrium and orientation like disorientation in space, involuntary movements, posture, gait and loss of balance.
