Wearable technologies to assist gait biomechanical analysis in daily living

这是一个以工程为重点的项目，研究跨越生物力学和临床研究领域。应聘者应具有较强的工程背景，具有机械工程、电气工程、生物机械工程、计算机科学和/或相关学科的学士学位。具有编程经验和/或对机器学习/人工智能感兴趣。该项目将整合大量高度相关的专业知识，在假肢和矫形应用的背景下为毕业生提供多学科培训机会，帮助满足P&O行业和学术研究的需求。该项目旨在开发第一个此类系统，可供患者在日常家庭环境中直接穿戴，以提供真实世界的运动和动态步态特征。

This is an Engineering focused project with research stretching across biomechanical and clinical research fields. The candidate should have strong engineering background with a first degree in e.g., mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, biomechanical engineering, computer sciences and/or related subjects. Experience and/or interest in programming, machine learning/AI is desirable.This project will integrate a wealth of highly relevant expertise to provide a multidisciplinary training opportunity for a graduate in the context of prosthetics and orthotic applications, helping to address the demands from P&O industries and academic research.Building upon existing wearable technologies, this project aims to develop a first of its kind system which can be worn directly by patients within the everyday home settings to provide real world motion and kinetic gait characteristics.
