  This paper presents the results of studying human gait transition outside the laboratory setting on a treadmill by means of wearable sensor technology. Combined inertial measurement and pressure sensor units embedded in footwear were employed to analyze the movement of the lower limbs during walk-run and run-walk transitions. Experimental data from 20 subjects was used to study three parameters - stride velocity, stride length and stride frequency. We focused on seven strides centered around the transition stride, that is, the stride in-between walking and running that has only a single floating phase. Three subjects underwent additional testing on a treadmill to capture the differences in kinematics between the two environments. The stride frequency varied least with both a subject’s individual transition behavior and the environment. The former can be concluded from the standard .. Read More»
