Project Overview

Design an instrument that measures the impacts of running using tibial acceleration data. The device should combine the use of accelerometers and gyroscopes, which will record data to an incorporated data logger. The device must be easily worn by the user, and the hardware should have the ability to do most of the data processing. This instrument will be used to diagnose stress fractures and other injuries related to running.
