The placement of inertial sensors on the human body, the definition of joint angle and a model of a hinge joint. (a) The local sensor coordinate axes are not aligned with the physiological axes and planes by which the joint angle, α, is defined; (b) the coordinates of the joint axis direction (green arrows) and the joint position (blue arrows) in the local coordinate systems of the sensors characterize the sensor-to-segment mounting.
