Systems and methods for monitoring posture of a user wearing an exosuit are discussed herein. Exosuits worn by users can monitor several movement factors that characterize the user's movements and posture. The user's posture is identified and analyzed, and feedback is provided to the user based on the analyzed posture.

Exosuit systems and methods for posture session segmentation and biomechanical feedback

A system and method for utilizing an activity monitoring device that includes, during a set of initial activity sessions, collecting the kinematic data from an activity monitoring device and generating a temporal record of at least one biomechanical signal that is calculated from the kinematic data; analyzing temporal changes in the biomechanical signals during the initial activity sessions and characterizing a fatigue model; and, during a subsequent activity session collecting current kinematic data of a participant and generating at least one current biomechanical signal from the current kinematic data, monitoring the fatigue state through processing the at least one current biomechanical signal according to the fatigue model, and triggering feedback in a user interface based on the fatigue state.

System and method for sensing and responding to fatigue during a physical activity

A system and method for using performance signatures can include generating a set of performance features during an activity of the first participant by collecting kinematic data from at least one inertial measurement unit and generating a set of biomechanical signals; combining the set of performance features into the performance signature; generating at least a second performance signature from a set of participants; comparing the performance signature of the first participant to at least the second performance signature; and applying a result of the comparison to an interaction with at least one participant.

System and method for using performance signatures

A system and method for collecting a set of kinematic data streams from an activity tracking system with at least one activity monitoring system that is attached to a user; segmenting at least a subset of the kinematic data streams into a set of segments according to actions of the user; generating a set of biomechanical signals from the kinematic data streams wherein a biomechanical signal characterize a biomechanical property during a segment and includes generating a first integration data set through data integration and baseline error correction across the set of segments of the normalized kinematic data stream and determining at least a first biomechanical signal that is at least partially based on the first integration data set; and applying the set of biomechanical signals.

System and method for characterizing biomechanical activity

A system and method are described herein for a sensor device which biomechanically detects in real-time a user's movement state and posture and then provides real-time feedback to the user based on the user's real-time posture. The feedback is provided through immediate sensory feedback through the sensor device (e.g., a sound or vibration) as well as through an avatar within an associated application with which the sensor device communicates.

System and method of biomechanical posture detection and feedback

A system and method are described herein for a sensor device which biomechanically detects in real-time a user's movement state and posture and then provides real-time feedback to the user based on the user's real-time posture. The feedback is provided through immediate sensory feedback through the sensor device (e.g., a sound or vibration) as well as through an avatar within an associated application with which the sensor device communicates. The sensor device detects the user's movement state and posture by capturing data from a tri-axial accelerometer in the sensor device. Streamed data from the accelerometer is normalized to correct for sensor errors as well as variations in sensor placement and orientation. Normalization is based on accelerometer data collected while the user is wearing the device and performing specific actions.

System and method of biomechanical posture detection and feedback including sensor normalization

A system and method are described herein for detecting a user's transition between sitting and standing postures. Transitions between sitting and standing states are reliably detected using an accelerometer attached to the user. By modeling error introduced by the accelerometer, and correcting for this error, transitions between sitting and standing states are reliably detected. A microprocessor coupled to the accelerometer converts the captured accelerometer data to approximate vertical acceleration. Vertical velocity, which includes accelerometer error, is determined from the approximate vertical acceleration. The vertical velocity is corrected, and the corrected vertical velocity used to determine vertical displacement. Transitions between sitting and standing states are determined from the vertical displacement.
