Our ESR14, Alessandro Bonfiglio, presented his latest research paper at the IEEE International Conference on Omni-layer Intelligent systems at King’s College London (COINS 2024).
This paper introduces a groundbreaking IMU-based functional calibration (FC) method designed for precise 3D wrist joint angle monitoring, addressing a significant gap in wrist-specific calibration algorithms. This approach offers a reliable and accessible solution for both clinical and rehabilitation settings.
Key Takeaways:
– Innovation in Calibration: The method surpasses traditional static calibration techniques by utilizing specific wrist movements, making it suitable even for patients who can’t hold predefined poses.
– High Accuracy: Validated against the gold standard optical motion capture system, our IMU-based FC method showed no significant differences, ensuring its reliability and precision.
– Clinical Application: This new method promises improved wrist motion tracking in rehabilitation, particularly beneficial for patients with neurological disorders.
Congrats Alessandro!
