20100280792 | PORTABLE DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MEASUREMENT AND CALCULATION OF DYNAMIC PARAMETERS OF PEDESTRIAN LOCOMOTION - The disclosed subject matter relates to a portable and autonomous device and corresponding method for the measurement, recording and calculation of dynamic parameters of the pedestrian locomotion of its bearer. The method hereby disclosed allows determining the distance effectively travelled, the velocity of displacement and the pressures exerted on the contact surface of the lower limb with the ground, during the pedestrian locomotion, according to its different phases. Through sensors strategically placed, accelerations, angular velocities and pressures are measured and recorded on the control unit. The device disclosed includes a processing unit that implements the method disclosed and a communication unit to transfer to an external unit the calculated parameters. The disclosed invention can be used in applications that involve monitoring parameters of the locomotion activity or daily ambulation of its bearer, in the areas of health and sports or in any physical and occupational activities. | 11-04-2010 |

20150223963 | TENSEGRITY-BASED GARMENT FOR OPTIMISING HUMAN POSTURE AND MOTION - The discussed matter is comprised of a biomechanical vest designed to optimize body posture and movement. Specifically, the equipment consists of a vest which has areas reinforced by a material that simulates the elastic tension usually provided by body structures. These areas of tensional reinforcement follow patterns of the musculoskeletal system architecture and aim to give appropriate support for posture and movements of children and adults with motor dysfunctions, as well as optimizing the performance of workers and sports practitioners during their activities. | 08-13-2015 |
