Energy-Aware Wearable E-Health Architecture Using Optical FBG Sensors for Knee Kinematic Monitoring. |
Abstract | ||
|---|---|---|
The continuous aging of the population has increased health risks, mostly translated in mobility impairments. New therapeutic options have come to light in the past years, with the rise of e-health architectures. The use of optical fiber based sensors has been considered as a possible e-health enabling technology, due to their advantages compared to electronic based sensors. In this paper, we present an e-health optical fiber based solution to monitor the knee angular flexion/extension during gait. The presented design is an accurate non-invasive solution, using kinesio tape and optical fiber Bragg grating sensors, in order not to limit the movement of the individuals. The paper shows the accuracy of the acquired measurements during gait using the proposed designed sensor. |
