By placing IMUs in different body segments, it is possible to obtain a complete description of the human joint kinematics during the execution of different tasks. Finally, considering the recent evolution of the communication devices, it is possible to build IMUs that can also transmit those measurements wirelessly [41, 42]. In addition, the development of wearable IMU systems presents important advantages in the field of human motion capturing: portability, high accuracy and ease 24 2 Human-Robot Interaction for Assisting Human Locomotion of use in unstructured environments.
