In this paper, a new system of teletransmission to analyse the walk during reeducation is presented. The system is made of three emitting sensors housed into the two canes and the feet switches, which assit the patient during the ambulatory function. An adaptating circuit is put between the emitter and the antenna to eliminate the interferences caused by simultaneous signals in the same area. KEY WORDS: Telemetry. Gait analysis. Assisted gait.
