title: Wearable sensors used for human gait analysis.
abstract: This paper briefly presents recent developments in the field of wearable sensors and systems that are relevant to the area of normal and pathological human gait analysis. By using wearable sensors, it is possible to monitor the pathological gait disorders and alterations and the changes of balance in the people and prevent or diagnose of different diseases. The most usable wearable sensors and their applications in clinical field are presented based on specialty literature.
