Abstract

•Detailed investigation to explain poor variability/asymmetry agreement between accelerometers and instrumented walkway.•Caution is urged in the choice of reference system for validation studies.•Accelerometers have potential to gather continuous and robust spatio-temporal gait data, representative of normal living.•Further refinement of the gait algorithms are required.
