✦ Synopsis

Monitoring body kinematics by wearable, comfortable and unobtrusive devices has fundamental relevance in several biological and technical disciplines. In this paper, the development and implementation of innovative sensing garments capable to detect posture and human body movement by using the electro-mechanical properties of innovative and diffuse conductive-elastomer (CE) sensors are presented. CE films show piezoresistive properties when mechanical deformations are applied. In several applications CEs can be integrated into fabric or other flexible substrate as strain sensors and may be used in biomechanical analysis to realize wearable kinesthetic interfaces able to detect posture and movement of the human body, matching several clinical requirements such as comfort, good fit and unobtrusivity. Currently, CEs behavior presents some peculiar non-linear phenomena and their use requires a complex treatment of the derived signals which will be introduced in the present work.
