Measuring human movement with tracking devices on looser clothing is more accurate than on tight body suits or straps
The research found that loose fabric can predict and capture the body’s movements with 40% more accuracy and needing 80% less data, than if a sensor were stuck to your skin.
This article from King's College London discusses how tracking human movement with devices on looser clothing is more accurate than using tight body suits or straps. The research, published in Nature Communications, found that loose fabric can predict and capture body movements with 40% more accuracy and needing 80% less data than sensors stuck to the skin. This discovery could lead to advancements in personal health devices, motion capture for CGI movie characters, and health and medical research, particularly for conditions affecting mobility like Parkinson’s.
