TLDR
A variety of methods have been presented over the past 25 years for the estimate of 2D and 3D joint kinematics by using inertial and magnetic sensors using wearable inertial measurement units, and the aim of the present review is to describe these approaches from a purely methodological point of view.

Validity and Reliability of Wearable Sensors for Joint Angle Estimation: A Systematic Review.

TL;DR: M/IMU should be considered as a valid tool to assess whole body range of motion, but further studies are needed to standardize technical procedures to obtain more accurate data.

Biosensors: Their Fundamentals, Designs, Types and Most Recent Impactful Applications: A Review

TL;DR: Biosensors are the devices that capture the biological signal and convert it into a detectable electrical signal as mentioned in this paper, which involves the combination of biological entities like DNA, RNA, and proteins/enzymes to the electrochemical transducers in order to detect and observe certain biological analytes like antibody-antigen interaction.

Barriers to the Adoption of Wearable Sensors in the Workplace: A Survey of Occupational Safety and Health Professionals:

TL;DR: The broad adoption of wearable technologies appears to depend largely on the scientific community’s ability to successfully address the identified barriers, and investigators may use the information provided to develop research studies that better address OSH practitioner concerns and help technology developers operationalize wearable sensors to improve employee health and well-being.

Towards Inertial Sensor Based Mobile Gait Analysis: Event-Detection and Spatio-Temporal Parameters.

TL;DR: It appears that the parameters describing the lateral distance between the feet need further improvement, however, the results of the validity and reliability of the IMU system encourage its validation in clinical settings as well as further research.

Gait Analysis: Normal and Pathological Function

TL;DR: This text encompasses the work of Dr Jacquelin Perry in her years as a therapist and surgeon focusing on the human gait, suitable for incorporating into many athletic training programmes, university physical therapy programmes and gait workshops.
Journal ArticleDOI

The major determinants in normal and pathological gait.

TL;DR: The adoption of the concept that fundamentally locomotion is the translation of the center of gravity through space along a pathway requiring the least expenditure of energy supplies the necessary unifying principle which permits of qualitative analysis in terms of the essential determinants of gait.

Gait analysis using wearable sensors.

TL;DR: The gait analysis methods based on wearable sensors is divided into gait kinematics, gait kinetics, and electromyography, which are expected to play an increasingly important role in clinical applications.

An introduction to inertial navigation

TL;DR: This work introduces inertial navigation, focusing on strapdown systems based on MEMS devices, and concludes that whilst MEMS IMU technology is rapidly improving, it is not yet possible to build a MEMS based INS which gives sub-meter position accuracy for more than one minute of operation.

Human movement analysis using stereophotogrammetry. Part 1: theoretical background.

TL;DR: An effort to systematize the different theoretical and experimental approaches to the problems involved and related nomenclatures is needed to facilitate data and knowledge sharing, and to provide renewed momentum for the advancement of human movement analysis.
