  3. 3. Towards a feedback system for upper body bodyweight exercises using multiple inertial measurement units : A user-centred approach

    University essay from KTH/Medicinteknik och hälsosystem

    Author : Panagiota Papadopoulou; [2023]
    Keywords : IMU sensors; bodyweight training; machine learning; real-time feedback; push-ups; tricep dips; plank;

    Abstract : This thesis explores the feasibility of developing an affordable and easy-to-use feed- back system that leverages information from multiple inertial measurement units (IMUs) to identify mistakes during upper body bodyweight training and provide real-time feedback to the user. To develop the system, a human-centered approach was used, which involved conducting semi-structured interviews with movement ex- perts and a workshop with targeted end-users to understand their needs.
