International Classification:

G06F 3/01
G06F 3/0487
G06F 3/02

Abstract:

Methods and apparatus for providing a dynamically-updated computerized musculo-skeletal representation comprising a plurality of rigid body segments connected by joints. The method comprises recording, using a plurality of autonomous sensors arranged on one or more wearable devices, a plurality of autonomous signals from a user, wherein the plurality of autonomous sensors include a plurality of neuromuscular sensors configured to record neuromuscular signals. The method further comprises providing as input to a trained statistical model, the plurality of neuromuscular signals and/or information based on the plurality of neuromuscular signals. The method further comprises determining, based on an output of the trained statistical model, musculo-skeletal position information describing a spatial relationship between two or more connected segments of the plurality of rigid body segments of the computerized musculo-skeletal representation, and updating the computerized musculo-skeletal representation based, at least in part, on the musculo-skeletal position information.

G06F 3/01

Abstract:

A method for determining spatial information for a multi-segment articulated rigid body system having at least an anchored segment and a non-anchored segment coupled to the anchored segment, each segment in the multi-segment articulated rigid body system representing a respective body part of a user, the method comprising: obtaining signals recorded by a first autonomous movement sensor coupled to a body part of the user represented by the non-anchored segment; providing the obtained signals as input to a trained statistical model and obtaining corresponding output of the trained statistical model; and determining, based on the corresponding output of the trained statistical model, spatial information for at least the non-anchored segment of the multi-segment articulated rigid body system. Determining the spatial information may include determining the position and/or orientation of the non-anchored segment relative to the anchor point and/or determining a spatial relationship between the anchored and non-anchored segments.
