| Abstract | This study presents a new developed simple and cordless personal navigation system (PNS). The PNS is a synchronized system consisting of a gyro and magnetic compass sensors, and connected to a small wearable personal computer (WPC) of a wrist watch type. Nickel-hydrogen rechargeable batteries are supplied as the electrical power of both sensors. While walking, the WPC is worn like a wrist watch, the small sensors are fixed to a person's back near the center of body gravity, and batteries are inserted into a person's waist pouch. When a switch is turned on, the serial time count, three relative angles, i.e., roll, pitch and yaw, meterage and absolute direction of the person's back are recorded at 30 cps. They are also displayed on a liquid crystal display on the WPC. In this study, persons who have suffered a pelvic fracture, a foot fracture, or lumbar disk herniation, and normal persons were selected as subjects. In the case of persons who had experienced orthopedic damage, it was observed that the power spectrum density of the three angles and direction of back fluctuation were wavy. In the case of normal persons, it was observed that their power spectrum density was approximately close to 1/f/sup 3/ (f: frequency) fluctuation. This study provides useful information for medical rehabilitation and physical fitness in daily movement. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
