Abstract :
An embedded 3D body motion capture system for an assistive walking robot is presented in this paper. A 3D camera and infrared sensors are installed on a wheeled walker. We compare the positions of the human articular joints computed with our embedded system and the ones obtained with an other accurate system using embodied markers, the Codamotion. The obtained results valid our approach.
