For elderly people with poor balance, poor eyesight, osteoporosis, joint dysfunction, and stroke, crutches have become an indispensable aid in their daily lives. However, these elderly people often experience unstable gait and loss of normal gait rhythm when walking with crutches, which not only affects their normal walking but also increases the risk of falling.
[0003] At present, common gait monitoring methods mainly include visual monitoring, wearable sensor monitoring, etc. Although the visual monitoring method can observe gait changes intuitively, it is easily affected by environmental factors such as light and occlusion, and requires a special monitoring site, making it difficult to achieve monitoring anytime and anywhere.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0025] The technical solution of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0026] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms "center", "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inner", "outer", etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship, are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the present invention. In addition, the terms "first", "second", and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0027] The abnormal gait correction method and device based on foot electrostatic gait signals provided by the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides an abnormal gait correction intelligent guiding crutch based on foot electrostatic gait signals, including a crutch body 103; an abnormal gait correction device 101 arranged on the crutch body 103, including an electrostatic induction electrode 301, a signal processing module 302, a monitoring and analysis module 303 and a correction output module 304; and a prompt device 102 arranged on the crutch body 103. Among them, the electrostatic induction electrode 301 is used to collect the foot electrostatic signal generated when the user walks, the signal processing module 302 is used to pre-process the electrostatic signal and establish the user's gait fingerprint feature, the monitoring and analysis module 303 is used to perform multi-dimensional gait analysis and judge abnormal gait, the correction output module 304 is used to generate a gait correction signal, and the prompt device 102 is used to output correction prompt information.
[0029] like Figure 2 As shown, the specific implementation process of the abnormal gait correction method based on the electrostatic gait signal of the foot includes: first, the electrostatic signal of the foot generated when the user walks is collected through the electrostatic induction electrode 301. Due to the interference of the power system and electrical equipment in the environment, the collected signal is inevitably mixed with 50Hz power frequency interference and its integer multiple power frequency harmonic noise. In order to improve the signal quality, the variational mode decomposition method is used to filter and preprocess the signal. This method determines the frequency center and bandwidth of each component by iteratively searching for the optimal solution of the variational model, and can adaptively realize the frequency domain decomposition of the signal and the effective separation of each component, thereby effectively removing the interference noise in the signal.
[0030] Next, the peak detection algorithm of adaptive dynamic threshold is used to extract gait feature points. Since the integral signal extreme value points of the electrostatic gait signal fluctuate greatly, the detection of fixed threshold is prone to misjudgment and missed detection. The adaptive dynamic threshold algorithm first determines the initial threshold, that is, the average value of the maximum value of the electrostatic gait signal data in the first few seconds, and then dynamically updates the threshold according to the amplitude of the adjacent extreme value points during the signal detection process, so as to accurately obtain gait feature points such as the moment of foot contact and the moment of foot leaving the ground. Based on these feature points, time parameters such as step frequency, gait cycle, support period and swing period are extracted, and the user gait fingerprint features are generated. Step frequency refers to the frequency of footsteps, that is, the number of times the two legs alternate in a unit time when walking. The cycle refers to the process from the heel of one lower limb touching the ground to the next landing, that is, a complete gait cycle. In this process, the lower limb goes through the two stages of support period and swing period. The cycle is the basic unit of gait analysis. By observing and measuring various parameters in the gait cycle, the quality and characteristics of the gait can be evaluated. The ratio of the swing phase to the support phase refers to the ratio of the time occupied by the swing phase to the time occupied by the support phase in a gait cycle. This ratio reflects the relative time distribution of the lower limbs swinging in the air and contacting the ground during gait, which is of great significance for evaluating the efficiency and stability of gait. Symmetry refers to the similarity or consistency of the movement patterns and characteristics of the lower limbs on both sides during the gait cycle, including symmetry in many aspects such as step length, step frequency, joint angles, and muscle activity. The symmetry of gait is of great significance for maintaining the balance and stability of the body. When the gait is asymmetrical, the body may be abnormal. Stability refers to the ability of the body to maintain balance and prevent falls during walking, including stability in the vertical direction (preventing the body from shaking up and down) and stability in the horizontal direction (preventing the body from swaying left and right or falling). Nonlinearity means that the gait parameters or gait characteristics are not simple linear relationships in time and space, but present complex and irregular change characteristics. Understanding the nonlinear characteristics of gait helps to have a deeper understanding of the generation mechanism and regulation rules of gait.
[0031] In the real-time gait monitoring stage and the early stage of establishing the gait fingerprint library, the collected foot electrostatic signals are analyzed in multiple dimensions. In the time domain, the coefficient of variation of the gait time parameters is calculated, that is, the mean value is divided by the standard deviation, which is used to evaluate the variability of the gait. In the frequency domain, the dynamic time planning algorithm is used to calculate the similarity of the bipedal gait signals. This algorithm evaluates the symmetry of the gait by finding the best time warping function to locally scale the two sequences on the time axis. In the energy domain, the empirical mode decomposition method is used to decompose the signal into multiple intrinsic mode function components, calculate the energy distribution ratio of the signal in each frequency band, and calculate the gait stability index based on the energy distribution. At the same time, the detrended fluctuation analysis method is used to evaluate the gait similarity. This method obtains the intrinsic fluctuation form and autocorrelation characteristics of the sequence by segmenting the time series and removing the trend.
[0032] When an abnormal gait is detected, the correction output module 304 generates a corresponding gait correction signal according to the abnormal type. The prompt device 102 includes a voice prompter and a vibration prompter, which can guide the user to adjust the gait through voice prompts or vibrations. For example, when an abnormal step frequency is detected, it will prompt "the left foot is too fast, please slow down the left foot"; when an abnormal support period is detected, it will prompt "the right foot is lifted too high, please lift the right foot lightly", etc., to help the user gradually restore a normal gait.
[0033] In addition, the intelligent guiding crutch of the present invention further includes a power module disposed in the crutch body 103 for supplying power to each functional module, and a switch button disposed on the crutch body 103 for controlling the opening and closing of the device. The entire device has a simple structure, a compact size, is easy to install and use, and is suitable for use in various scenarios.
[0034] The present invention adopts a non-contact electrostatic induction method to collect gait signals, and combines multi-dimensional analysis technology to realize accurate identification and timely correction of abnormal gait. It not only avoids the discomfort that may be caused by contact sensors in traditional methods, but also overcomes the influence of environmental factors such as light.
