Study of Rhythm and Fluctuation in Walking by Middle and Elderly Subjects
【Supercategory：7. DESCENTE SPORTS SCIENCE Subcategory：7.23 Vol.23】
Our useful walking analyzer system is composed of two sub-systems. One acquires time series data of body movements using developed measurement systems of gyro sensor and two accelerometers. Another is a system of analyzing person's walking stability. It utilizes spectral analysis by Auto Regressive modeling. The impulse response of movement factors enables analysis of their dynamic relations. The biofeedback control analysis of walking stability of the middle and elderly suggests new potential for the evaluation of medical recovery in rehabilitation and physical fitness in daily movement.
