Evaluating the feasibility of two post-hoc correction techniques for mitigating posture-induced measurement errors associated with wearable motion capture.

Wearable motion capture systems are commonly used to measure body kinematics outside of laboratory settings. However, commercially available systems are designed to be used with typically developed adult populations, and assume users begin with a typical standing posture. Individuals with cerebral palsy and other neuromuscular pathologies often present atypical postures that can introduce significant errors in kinematics measurements from wearable motion capture.
