Joint Inertial Sensor Orientation Drift Reduction for Highly Dynamic Movements

Kamiar Aminian, Benedikt Fasel, Julien Chardonnens

Inertial sensor drift is usually corrected on a single-sensor unit level. When multiple sensor units are used, mutual information from different units can be exploited for drift correction. This study introduces a method for a drift-reduced estimation of t ...

Measurement of the dynamics in ski jumping using a wearable inertial sensor-based system

Kamiar Aminian, Julien Favre, Julien Chardonnens

Dynamics is a central aspect of ski jumping, particularly during take-off and stable flight. Currently, measurement systems able to measure ski jumping dynamics (e.g., 3D cameras, force plates) are complex and only available in few research centres worldwi ...

Orientation of body segments in ski jumps using wearable sensors: Analysis of relevant parameters during stable flight phase

Kamiar Aminian, Julien Favre, Julien Chardonnens

3D kinematic and dynamic analysis is highly required in ski jumping. Current recording techniques (e.g. camera systems) suffered from limitations, such as volume capture or complexity of use and processing. This study proposed a new 3D approach based on in ...

Suitability of commercial barometric pressure sensors to distinguish sitting and standing activities for wearable monitoring

Kamiar Aminian, Anisoara Ionescu, Julien Chardonnens, Fabien Massé, Alan Kevin Bourke

Despite its medical relevance, accurate recognition of sedentary (sitting and lying) and dynamic activities (e.g. standing and walking) remains challenging using a single wearable device. Currently, trunk-worn wearable systems can differentiate sitting fro ...

A system to measure the kinematics during the entire ski jump sequence using inertial sensors

Kamiar Aminian, Julien Favre, Julien Chardonnens

Three-dimensional analysis of the entire sequence in ski jumping is recommended when studying the kinematics or evaluating performance. Camera-based systems which allow three-dimensional kinematics measurement are complex to set-up and require extensive po ...

Three-Dimensional Body and Centre of Mass Kinematics in Alpine Ski Racing Using Differential GNSS and Inertial Sensors

Kamiar Aminian, Benedikt Fasel, Julien Chardonnens

A key point in human movement analysis is measuring the trajectory of a person’s center of mass (CoM). For outdoor applications, differential Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) can be used for tracking persons since they allow measuring the traject ...

Determination of the centre of mass kinematics in alpine skiing using differential global navigation satellite systems

Julien Chardonnens

In the sport of alpine skiing, knowledge about the centre of mass (CoM) kinematics (i.e. position, velocity and acceleration) is essential to better understand both performance and injury. This study proposes a global navigation satellite system (GNSS)-bas ...

An inertial sensor-based system for spatio-temporal analysis in classic cross-country skiing diagonal technique

Kamiar Aminian, Julien Favre, Benedikt Fasel, Julien Chardonnens

The present study proposes a method based on ski fixed inertial sensors to automatically compute spatio-temporal parameters (phase durations, cycle speed and cycle length) for the diagonal stride in classical cross-country skiing. The proposed system was v ...

An effortless procedure to align the local frame of an inertial measurement unit to the local frame of another motion capture system

Kamiar Aminian, Julien Favre, Julien Chardonnens

Inertial measurement units (IMUs) offer great opportunities to analyze segmental and joints kinematics. When combined with another motion capture system (MCS), for example, to validate new IMU-based applications or to develop mixed systems, it is necessary ...

Automatic measurement of key ski jumping phases and temporal events with a wearable system

Kamiar Aminian, Julien Favre, Julien Chardonnens, Benoît Le Callennec

We propose a new method, based on inertial sensors, to automatically measure at high frequency the durations of the main phases of ski jumping (i.e. take-off release, take-off, and early flight). The kinematics of the ski jumping movement were recorded by ...

Analysis of inter-segment coordination during the take-off of ski jumping

Kamiar Aminian, Julien Favre, Julien Chardonnens

In ski jumping, take-off (TO) is considered as the most important phase. While spatio-temporal features have been identified during this phase, inter-segment coordination has never been investigated. This study proposed a new method using body worn inertia ...
