To estimate the posture of the upper limbs, inertial sensor system which is composed of a tri-axial accelerometer, a tri-axial gyroscope and a tri-axial geomagnetic sensor is developed. Two inertial sensors are attached to the right and left clavicle to observe the motion between sternoclavicular joint and acromioclavicular joint, and totally seven sensors are used to estimate the posture of upper limbs.
