Ambulatory measurement of 3-dimensional foot displacement during treadmill walking using wearable wireless ultrasonic sensor network by Qi, Yongbin, Soh, Cheong Boon, Gunawan, Erry, Low, Kay-Soon

“…Based on the TOA-based tracking technique, the 3-D foot trajectories are validated against a camera-based motion capture system for ten healthy subjects walking on a treadmill at slow, normal, and fast speeds. The experimental results have shown that the ultrasonic system has sufficient accuracy of net root-mean-square error (4.2 cm) for 3-D displacement, especially for foot clearance with accuracy and standard deviation (0.62 ± 7.48 mm) compared to the camera-based motion capture system. …”
