It is to be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the application and are not limiting of the application. It should be further noted that, for the convenience of description, only some of the structures related to the present application are shown in the drawings, not all of the structures.

Since the wired communication method requires wiring in each device of the system, the undesirable result of wiring complexity is inevitable. When data transmission is performed by using wireless methods such as bluetooth and WiFi, the gait analysis system may have high power consumption and high operation cost due to the large power consumption of the wireless methods such as bluetooth and WiFi.
Therefore, the gait analysis system provided by the embodiment realizes data transmission among different devices in the system based on the ZigBee wireless communication technology, can simplify the gait analysis wiring structure, and reduces power consumption and cost.
Specifically, referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of an embodiment of a gait analysis system provided in this embodiment, and as shown in fig. 1, a gait analysis system 100 provided in this embodiment includes a lower limb detection device 110, a sole detection device 120 and a processing device 130.
The lower limb detection device 110 is fixed to the lower limb of the human body and used for acquiring the knee joint movement information, and the lower limb detection device 110 includes a first zigbee communication module 111 for sending the knee joint movement information.

The processing device 130 is configured to obtain knee joint movement information and sole pressure information, and perform gait analysis on a human body according to the knee joint movement information and the sole pressure information.
In fact, the lower limb detection device 110 is connected to a ZigBee wireless network (not shown) through the first ZigBee communication module 111, the sole detection device 120 is connected to the ZigBee wireless network through the second ZigBee communication module 121, and the lower limb detection device 110 and the sole detection device 120 can transmit the knee joint movement information and the sole pressure information to the processing device 130 through the ZigBee wireless network.

The ZigBee technology is an emerging short-distance and low-speed wireless network technology, is developed based on the IEEE802.15.4 wireless standard, is related to the technical standards in networking, safety and application software, is mainly suitable for the fields of automatic control and remote control, and can be embedded into various devices.
The ZigBee technology has the following characteristics:
1. high reliability: the Carrier Sense Multiple Access with connectivity Avoidance (CSMA/CA) technique is used to avoid contention and Collision when data is transmitted. A transmission mode with acknowledgement and a retransmission mechanism are used. Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) is used to ensure the correctness of the data.
2. Low power consumption: the terminal device is dozens of milliwatts in a communication state and dozens of microwatts in a sleep mode. Under the low power consumption standby mode, the No. 5 dry battery with 2 nodes can support 1 node to work for 6-24 months.
3. The cost is low: the ZigBee chip cost is only about two dollars, and the ZigBee protocol is free of special fees.

6. The network capacity is large: each ZigBee network can support a maximum of 65535 devices.
Generally speaking, compared with various existing wireless communication technologies, the ZigBee technology has the characteristics of low power consumption and low cost, and is suitable for carrying a service with a small data flow.
In this embodiment, the knee joint motion information may include an angle and an acceleration of the knee joint. The angle of the knee joint is used to represent the rotation state of the human knee joint. In one embodiment, the knee joint angle is determined by the difference between the angle of the human thigh and the angle of the human calf. The angle of the thigh, i.e., the rotation angle of the thigh relative to the waist, and the angle of the calf, i.e., the rotation angle of the calf relative to the waist, are determined as the angle of the knee joint. Similarly, the acceleration of the knee joint is determined by the difference between the acceleration of the thigh and the acceleration of the calf of the human body. Since the acceleration of the thigh, i.e., the rotational acceleration of the thigh with respect to the waist, and the acceleration of the calf, i.e., the rotational acceleration of the calf with respect to the waist, the difference between the acceleration of the thigh and the acceleration of the calf is the acceleration of the knee joint.
The lower limb detection device 110 comprises at least one inertial sensor (not shown), and is connected to the first ZigBee communication module 111 for collecting the angle and acceleration of the knee joint.
Alternatively, the inertial sensor may be a three-axis sensor, a six-axis sensor, or a nine-axis sensor. Optionally, the inertial sensor may further include a signal amplification processing circuit and/or a filter circuit, etc., so that the collected knee angle signal and acceleration signal are more accurate.
The nine-axis sensor is a combination of three sensors: the three parts of the three-axis acceleration sensor, the three-axis gyroscope and the three-axis electronic compass (geomagnetic sensor) have different functions and are mutually matched. The acceleration sensor measures acceleration in each direction in space. The inertia of a gravity block is utilized, when the sensor moves, the gravity block can generate pressure to X, Y, Z directions (front, back, left, right, upper and lower), then a piezoelectric crystal is utilized to convert the pressure into an electric signal, the pressure in each direction is different along with the change of the movement, and the electric signal is also changed, so that the acceleration direction and the speed of the mobile phone are judged. The gyroscope is a device for measuring angles and maintaining directions, and can completely monitor the displacement of hands of a player in games such as a flight game, a sports game, a first visual angle shooting game and the like, thereby realizing various game operation effects. The lower graph is a most basic mechanical gyroscope model, the middle golden rotor is not influenced by inertia effect in the whole instrument movement, and the three peripheral steel rings are changed by changing the posture of the equipment, so that the current rotation state of the equipment is detected. Electronic compasses can describe essentially the complete motion state of a device using acceleration sensors and gyroscopes. However, with long-time movement, accumulated deviation also occurs, and the movement posture cannot be accurately described, such as the inclination of the control picture. The electronic compass (geomagnetic sensor) measures the earth magnetic field, corrects and compensates through the absolute pointing function, and can effectively solve the accumulated deviation, so as to correct the motion direction, the attitude angle, the motion force, the speed and the like of the human body.
The nine-axis sensor is used as an integrated sensor module, reduces a circuit board and the whole space, and is more suitable for being used in light and portable electronic equipment and wearable products. The data accuracy of the integrated sensor not only relates to the accuracy of the device, but also relates to the correction after welding assembly and a matching algorithm aiming at different applications. The appropriate algorithm can fuse data from various sensors, make up for the deficiency of a single sensor in calculating accurate position and direction, and therefore realize high-precision motion detection.
The nine-axis sensor that can be used in this embodiment is BMX055, LSM9DS0 or MPU-9250.

The first single chip microcomputer 114 is connected to the first inertial sensor 112, the second inertial sensor 113 and the first ZigBee communication module 111. The first inertial sensor 112 is used to collect the angle and acceleration of the thigh. The second inertial sensor 113 is used to acquire the angle and acceleration of the lower leg.
The first single chip microcomputer 114 is used for calculating the relative acceleration and the relative angle of the knee joint based on the angle and the acceleration of the thigh and the angle and the acceleration of the shank and sending the relative acceleration and the relative angle through the first ZigBee communication module 111. Specifically, the first single chip 114 is configured to calculate a difference between an angle of the thigh and an angle of the calf to obtain a relative angle of the knee joint, and calculate a difference between an acceleration of the thigh and an acceleration of the calf to obtain a relative acceleration of the knee joint.
The inventor of this application discovers through long-term research that current equipment that is used for sensing knee joint motion information utilizes the angle information of bending sensor monitoring knee joint usually, because bending sensor's structure is rectangular form, need be fixed in whole knee joint through external fixation device (like the bandage), and it is airtight, tightly ties up the sense, and in function, bending sensor lacks the acceleration monitoring, can't construct complete gait model to influence patient and experience recovered effect even.
