Abstract

The paper discusses results of experiments carried out at healthy individuals with an aim to establish an in-house developed sensor mechanism using ADXL 330 accelerometer. The sensor was developed in view to measure gait phases (heel strike & toe off), gait duration and gait speed. These findings were useful in understanding the range of normal gait though accelerometer and further used for control of indigenously developed artificial electronic knee.
