The sensors inside smartphones allow tracking various parameters with high precision. These parameters are able to describe many qualities of a walking path, thanks to the accelerometer and gravimeter sensors seen in detail from previous experiences.
Application designed to quantitatively and qualitatively evaluate a walking path, and the relationship between various parameters such as accelerations’ componentes and gravity forces.
