ANGULAR SENSOR, ANGLE MEASUREMENT SYSTEM, BASE STATION, GARMENT AND BAND AID OR PLASTER COMPRISING AN ANGULAR SENSOR

摘要

An angular sensor (100) comprising at least one loop (140,150) of electrical conductive material being attached to a preferably flexible substrate is provided. The substrate is foldable and an inductance of the loop (140,150) is dependent on a folding angle (160). The angular sensor (100) may be included in a garment (400) to facilitate the determination of a body posture, or in a plaster (500) to apply to the skin of a patient. Preferably the angular sensor transfers data indicative of the measured angle wireless to a base station (300). The base station is configured to receive the data of a plurality of angular sensors. The angular sensor (100) and the base station (300) are included in an angle measurement system (350) that may be used by a physiotherapist to supervise rehabilitation exercises.
