Estimation of Temporal Gait Parameters Using a Wearable Microphone-Sensor-Based System

Most existing wearable gait analysis methods focus on the analysis of data obtained from inertial sensors. This paper proposes a novel, low-cost, wireless and wearable gait analysis system which uses microphone sensors to collect footstep sound signals during walking. This is the first time a microp...
