Abstract
This paper describes an unconstrained gait measurement method by using a mobile robot as one of a service for perceiving human's health. Human's gait is measured based on feet recognition by the mobile robot equipped with the Kinect sensor. The mobile robot detects ankles and instep using the Kinect sensor. Furthermore, the mobile robot computes swinging time on gained coordinate of ankles and instep of images with running parallel to a target person. Experimental results show a usefulness of proposed method by comparison of estimated value with an actual measured value.
