Abstract

A system for determining the posture of a person has a motion sensor (CM) with at least one axis of measurement, which is provided with fixing means (MF) for rigidly connecting said motion sensor (CM) to a user. Analysis means (AN) are also included for determining a posture of the user. The analysis means (AN) utilize: (A) joint densities of probabilities of a low-frequency component and a high-frequency component, these densities of probabilities being defined for each posture; and (B) probabilities of transition between two successive postures.
