Heel and Toe Clearance Estimation for Gait Analysis Using Wireless Inertial Sensors

Kamiar Aminian, Benoît Mariani

Tripping is considered a major cause of fall in older people. Therefore, foot clearance (i.e., height of the foot above ground during swing phase) could be a key factor to better understand the complex relationship between gait and falls. This paper presen ...
