摘要

This study analyzed the characteristics of the Kinect sensor developed for video games as a motion capture device. In addition, a calibration method was developed using deep learning technique to improve the precision of the Kinect while maintaining its convenience: no marker, low cost, easy-to-install, etc. When the proposed calibration scheme was applied to four types of arm exercises for three subjects, measurement errors were reduced by 68 % for shoulder movements and 43 % for elbow movements. Also, the measurement precision for shoulder flexion and abduction was improved up to 4 degrees, which sufficiently satisfied the requirement of rehabilitation exercises for patients with frozen shoulder.
