Work-related upper extremity musculoskeletal disorders (WRUED) are a major problem in modern society. The objective is to develop and validate a IMU-EMG system able to provide quantitative clinical measurements of upper limb muscular activity. The goal is then to provide these information to workers and healthcare professionals to reduce WRUED.
