Abstract
The purpose of this study was to determine range of motion values of lumbar spine in rehabilitation procedure after surgery, using wearable wireless sensors. In this paper, we present a method for determining the mobility of the spinal column using a network of sensors. The sensors consist of accelerometers and gyroscopes, and mutual communication is accomplished using a I2C bus. The main sensor node collects data from all the sensors and sends them to a computer using Bluetooth communication. The collected data is then filtered and converted to the values of the angles that are of interest to quantify the movement.
