Smart clothing with dual inertial sensors and dual stretch sensors for human motion capture

摘要

This invention is smart clothing which enables human motion capture through combined analysis of data from dual inertial sensors and dual stretch (or bend) sensors. In a preferred embodiment, a first inertial motion sensor is located proximal to a body joint, a second inertial sensor is located distal to the body joint, and two stretch sensors span the body joint in different configurations.
