Abstract

The invention discloses a flexible joint angle sensor, and relates to a joint angle sensor. The flexible joint angle sensor is used for solving the problem of high detection errors of an inertia sensor detection method and a video detection method which are used as human posture measuring means at present. The flexible joint angle sensor is characterized in that the upper end of a flexible corrugated pipe is connected with a fixing ring, the lower end of the flexible corrugated pipe is connected with a lower fixing block, three steel wire sliding tracks are circumferentially and uniformly distributed at each crest on the flexible corrugated pipe, the multiple steel wire sliding tracks which are arranged along the direction of a generating line of the surface of the flexible corrugated pipe are vertically opposite to one another, the fixing ring is of a hollow structure, a center hole is formed in the center of the upper end surface of the fixing ring, three upper through holes are formed in the lower end surface of the fixing ring, three lower through holes are formed in the lower fixing block, a steel wire harness comprising three steel wires is arranged in the center hole, the upper end of the steel wire harness penetrates an upper fixing block, and the lower ends of the three steel wires respectively penetrate the three upper through holes, pass through each three corresponding steel wire sliding tracks, respectively penetrate the three lower through holes and then are connected with displacement sensors. The flexible joint angle sensor is used for measuring postures of organisms.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an attitude detection sensor, in particular to a flexible joint angle sensor. Background technique [0002] The existing methods of measuring human body posture usually adopt the methods of inertial sensor detection and video detection. Inertial devices all use several acceleration sensors and gyroscopes to measure joint angles, and the measurement system and data processing are relatively complicated. Its long-term detection will cause large cumulative errors and reduce measurement accuracy; it is not suitable for attitude detection in dynamic environments (such as driving cars, airplanes), and any dynamic changes in the external environment will cause obvious parameter distortion and are not applicable Measured at rest. This method is mainly aimed at short-term continuous motion measurement in a static environment. At this stage, the accuracy of anthropometric measurements is about 2-3 degrees. The 3D motion data captured b...
