Investigating gait-responsive somatosensory cueing from a wearable device to improve walking in Parkinson’s disease

Abstract Freezing-of-gait (FOG) and impaired walking are common features of Parkinson’s disease (PD). Provision of external stimuli (cueing) can improve gait, however, many cueing methods are simplistic, increase task loading or have limited utility in a real-world setting.
