Human body and body part movement analysis using gyroscope, accelerometer and compass

Abstract

This study investigates and acts as a trial clinical outcome for human motion and behaviour analysis in consensus of health related quality of life in Malaysia. It was developed to analyse and access the quality of human limbs motion that can be used in hospitals, clinics and human motion researches. An experiment was set up in a laboratory environment with conjunction of analysing human motion and its behaviour. The instruments demonstrate adequate internal consistency of results as below: 1. Compass sensor gives a better result with less standard deviation values especially in x-axis according descriptive statistical data. 2. Compass sensor gives a clearer scatter plot for better classification. 3. R2 (amount of variation explained) for sensor attached on arm is lower than hip and that means data collected from this site have a consistent trend.
