What is it about?
In general, a three-dimensional motion analysis system has traditionally been used to obtain a time-series data during human movement. However, this system is associated with several disadvantages, such as the need for a dedicated space (e.g., laboratory) and high associated costs. In recent years, a motion sensor has been developed that can directly obtain estimated angular information. However, its accuracy could be affected by motion speed such as acceleration and angular velocity. This study aimed to reliability and validity of angles evaluated using motion sensors.

Why is it important?
Our findings show that the angles obtained by the motion sensor are not affected by motion speed. These findings show that the motion sensor can be used to measure human motion.
Perspectives
We hope that through this article we can influence researchers interested in motion sensors.
