ABSTRACT:
A method of electronically aligning a first sensor having two substantially nonparallel sense axes producing first and second output signals and carried by a garment so as to be positioned proximate to a joint's first axis of movement with a second sensor having two substantially nonparallel sense axes producing third and fourth output signals and carried by the garment so as to be positioned proximate to the joint's second axis of movement, comprises the steps of: reading values for the third and fourth output signals at two points while the joint is moved substantially along only the joint's first axis; electronically combining the third and fourth signals so that the combined output is constant; reading values for the first and second output signals at two points while the joint is being moved substantially along only the joint's second axis; and electronically combining the first and second signals so that the combined output is constant. An apparatus for carrying out the foregoing method is also disclosed.
