Gait events
Gait Event Detection in Real-World Environments for Long-Term Applications
This is a placeholder for an automated service that will provide temporal estimation of gait events from accelerometer signals. The service would take accelerometer data (in the specified format) as input and provide the estimated events as output.
Until this service is implemented, please send your data in the specified format to siddhartha.khandelwal@hh.se and nicholas.wickstrom@hh.se.
Specifications
Activities: Walking and running
Placement of 3-axis Accelerometer: Anywhere around the ankle in any orientation.
Sensitivity of the Accelerometer: (+-) 4g or more. Please specify. Please also check if the accelerometer signal has saturated during intense activity such as running.
Sampling Frequency: Preferred - 128 Hz [A Sampling frequency of 50Hz and above is acceptable. Please specify.]
Input data: AccX, AccY, AccZ [Accelerometer signals from the X, Y and Z axes, respectively.]
Input data format: abc.mat or abc.csv [Data in Matlab format or comma separated text file.]
NOTE: The data should consist of ONLY walking and running segments of the signal. Segments corresponding to inactivity or any other activity should be removed from the signals prior to data submission.
