We developed a low power kinematic sensor, ActimedARM, incorporating three-axis accelerometer and magnetometer, a microcontroller ARM3, a ZigBee wireless communication and μSD memory storage. With embedded algorithms it can detect in real time the postures of the subject. A preliminary assessment conducted on 12 subjects reached a 97% correct classification rate. The device exhibits 32 days of autonomy on a 3600 mAh capacity battery, which makes it convenient for field experiments in true daily life.
