Abstract

In this article the authors review the state of the art modern equipment used to measure the physical activity of man. In addition, they represent a unique project built wireless sensor human activity which is a response to the perceived shortcomings of the prior art. The article includes criteria for selecting the microcontroller and accelerometer, gyroscope and magnetometer. In order to present operation is given waveforms recorded while standing stationary and moving. In addition, presents selected statistical values of the recorded for the timing parameters.
