Configurable, wearable sensing and vibrotactile feedback system for real-time postural balance and gait training: proof-of-concept

Abstract Background Postural balance and gait training is important for treating persons with functional impairments, however current systems are generally not portable and are unable to train different types of movements. Methods This paper describes a proof-of-concept design of a configurable, wea...
