Validation of an inertial measurement unit based estimation of trunk motion in sit-skiing: a pilot study

Sagittal plane trunk movement is important for producing propulsive force when sit-skiing. We aimed to validate the use of inertial measurement units for measuring sagittal plane trunk movements during sit-skiing in the field. Able-bodied participants (n=4) performed 30 seconds of sit-skiing in a kneeling position on a treadmill while one AdMos IMU sensor (on the upper back) and 4 reflective markers on the trunk recorded kinematics. A secondary validation was performed with 4 sensors and markers attached to a rigid body, which was rotated to mimic the trunk during sit-skiing. For the rigid body, the root mean square error was
