Validation of an inertial measurement unit to determine countermovement jump height

Background: Vertical jump highs are used to quantify performance in the lower extremities. The aim of this study was to validate a wearable inertial measurement unit (IMU) for purpose of estimating countermovement jump height using the following methods: numerical double integration (NDI), takeoff v...
