Drawing on 15 years of experience in the development and use of wearable
sensors in sports science, this book bridges the gap between technical
research and the widespread adoption of inertial sensors in
biomechanical assessment and ambulatory studies of locomotion. It offers
a 'no-nonsense' guide to using inertial sensors for readers from the
sports science disciplines who may be unfamiliar with the terms,
concepts and approaches that lead to these sensors' successful use. At
the same time, the book introduces readers with a technical background,
e.g. in engineering, to sport science methodologies that can provide
valuable insights into the use of sensors in a practical environment
that extends well beyond bench testing.
