Survey of Human Posture Recognition Based on Wearable Device

The recognition of human postures and activities through wearable devices is beneficial to research human-computer interaction in different domains such as medical, entertainment and sports. This paper surveys the state of art in posture recognition based on the wearable device. The concept of human posture recognition is introduced along with the processing flow. Subsequently, several data preprocessing methods and the posture recognition algorithms are analyzed. Finally, the conclusion is made and the further research is pointed out.
