INSTRUMENTED ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI) DRIVEN MOTION TRACKING AND ALIGNMENT SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR VARIOUS APPLICATIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240315390 titled 'INSTRUMENTED ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI) DRIVEN MOTION TRACKING AND ALIGNMENT SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR VARIOUS APPLICATIONS
The patent application describes AI-driven motion tracking and alignment systems that generate time-normalized three-dimensional data related to pronation and/or supination of the lower extremities of a user. A semi-rigid foot orthotic with embedded sensors is used to measure forces from the user's lower extremity acting on the orthotic. Data on the bending, flexing, and rotating of the orthotic can be analyzed to understand in-shoe pronation and/or supination. Other detectors measure temperature, body weight, heart rate, and motion timing. An adjustment device can be used to modify the orthotic, and data can also be used to create animations depicting the user's body movements accurately.

Original Abstract Submitted
ai driven motion tracking and alignment systems configured to generate time-normalized three dimensional (e.g. frontal, sagittal, transverse) data associated with pronation and/or supination of lower extremities of a user are described. a semi-rigid foot orthotic can have sensors embedded in flexible regions. data from the sensors is used to measure how the orthotic bends to determine forces from a lower extremity of the user acting on the orthotic. data on the flexing, bending, and/or rotating of portions of the orthotic (including velocities, accelerations) may be compared to analyze in shoe pronation and/or supination. other detectors can measure the temperature, body weight, heart rate, and timing of motion. an adjustment device can be used to adjust the orthotic. data may also facilitate generation of animation that accurately depicts the positions and/or movements of a user's body; the use of augmented and virtual reality for avatar based applications; and presentation of information.
