  • Abstract
    A piezoresistance type 3-D acceleration sensor is used for analysis of walking under various measurement conditions. The sensor is set to the center of the personpsilas waist. The differences due to the walking conditions in acceleration information were extracted and estimation of stride length from the amplitude of acceleration was proposed.
