Description
A peer-reviewed research article from Europe PMC (2025). BackgroundAccurate mobility assessment is critical for identifying individuals at risk of falls, particularly among older adults. While gold-standard motion capture systems offer high precision, their clinical adoption is often hindered by high costs, spatial constraints, and technical complexity.MethodsThis study introduces and validates TUG-VIMU, a low-cost, portable system for instrumented Timed Up and Go (TUG) testing that integrates a GoPro camera with an ArUco marker.
