pykinematics: 3D hip joint angle estimation¶
pykinematics
is an open-source Python package for estimating hip kinematics using both novel Magnetic and Inertial
Measurement Unit (MIMU) wearable sensors and existing Optical Motion Capture (OMC) algorithms. The novel MIMU algorithms
have been validated against OMC, and include novel methods for estimating sensor-to-sensor relative orientation and
sensor-to-segment alignment.
Validation¶
The novel MIMU algorithms in pykinematics
were validated against OMC in a healthy human subject population.
Detailed results and description of those novel algorithms can be found in [1].
