Proprioceptive sensing system for therapy assessment using cotton fabric-based biomedical microelectromechanical system

Demands for better control of the operating conditions used in human motion tracking and medical applications have led to the need for better means of detecting different types of proprioceptive activity patterns. The purpose of this paper is to propose the development of a proprioceptive sensor for...
