Abstract
An apparatus, a method, and a computer program are disclosed. The apparatus comprises a processor. The processor is configured to obtain instantaneous acceleration values representing lower limb motion of a user, to form an effective acceleration value from the instantaneous acceleration values over a plurality of steps of the user, and to determine a motion parameter representing overall motion of the user by means of the effective acceleration value.
