Abstract
A new wearable data capture system for gait analysis is being developed.
It consists of a pantyhose with embedded conductive yarns interconnecting
customized sensing electronic devices that capture inertial and electromyographic
signals and sends aggregated information to a personal computer through a
wireless link. The use of conductive yarns to build the myoelectric electrodes and
the interconnections of the wired sensors network,
