Abstract

Accelerometers have been widely used for inertial sensing and applied on various medical applications. Recently, accelerometers are miniaturized using micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) technology that can be easily integrated into various body sensing system and it makes sensing of acceleration becomes simple and low cost. In this paper, we present an introductory discussion on the medical applications using accelerometer-based body sensing; introduce our patent-pending tilting angle identification algorithm; and our research goals and current status of accelerometer-based body sensing for healthy aging in Chang Gung University.
