| Abstract |
Joint angle generally can be measured to check the recovery process in rehabilitation field. This paper suggests to measure joint angle with Infrared sensor based on triangulation principle. We performed various experiments to find the optimal condition of the sensor’s attached distance, height, and angle. The results were compared with commercial goniometer for accuracy. The proposed infrared joint angle sensor can be effectively used in rehabilitation and sport science fields. |
