  • Abstract
    An overview of conceptual, analytical and experimental elements to quantitatively describe human kinematics, with specific focus on gait, using magneto-inertial sensors is presented. It includes a review and a taxonomy scheme of the techniques for the estimation of joint kinematics and spatio-temporal gait parameters.
