A Comprehensive Analysis of the Validity and Reliability of the Perception Neuron Studio for Upper Body Motion Capture

Version:0.9 StartHTML:0000000105 EndHTML:0000001364 StartFragment:0000000141 EndFragment:0000001324 Although some studies have been conducted to validate the accuracy of the Perception Neuron Studio (PNS) inertial motion capture system in quantifying kinematics, a comprehensive analysis of the more complex upper body is still lacking, which affects the ability of this system to provide accurate kinematic data for further biomechanical performance analysis. This study presents a thorough analysis of this system by quantifying the validity and intra/inter-session reliability at different task complexities and movement speeds.
