  • Muscle power detection device and method for muscle power classification
    Patent number: 10441208
    Abstract: A muscle power detection device and a muscle power detection method for detecting and classifying a muscle power status of a subject are provided. The muscle power detection device includes an inertia measurement unit, a pressure detection unit and a processing unit. The inertia measurement unit is configured to be arranged at a part of the subject and to obtain inertial data corresponding to the part of the subject according to movement status of the part of the subject. The pressure detection unit is configured to detection external force applied on the part of the subject to obtain pressure data. The processing unit is configured to perform an operation on the inertial data and the pressure data for obtaining evaluation values, and to obtain muscle power information corresponding to the part of the subject according to the evaluation values.
