“…Wearable sensor systems, enabled by smartphones, foot switches, pressure insoles, accelerometers, and gyroscopes present a more portable, low cost, and easy to use alternative to traditional motion capture systems. Consequently, wearable sensor systems have gained substantial interest in the research community for monitoring gait activity [ 16 , 17 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 ]. Given their ubiquity in today’s society, the accelerometers within mobile phones have been widely explored for recognition of gait and walking terrain [ 32 , 33 , 34 ].…”
