Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Validation of the agreement between gait spatiotemporal parameters (e.g., gait speed, stride length, gait cycle duration) and sagittal lower limb joint angles measured by an IMU sensor and those measured by a 3D motion capture system, using RMSE, ICC, and Bland-Altman analysis. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Evaluation of differences in sagittal lower limb joint angle waveforms throughout the gait cycle using Statistical Parametric Mapping (SPM) to identify agreement and error regions between the IMU sensor and the 3D motion capture system. In addition, exploratory analyses will be conducted to assess variations in measurement errors under different walking speeds. | — |
