  • Descrição: •A novel gait event detection algorithm for various locomotion tasks is developed.•Detection includes tasks with change of direction and different velocities.•Initial contact detection performs slightly better than toe-off detection.•The algorithm shows enhanced performance over previous methods.•The proposed algorithm broadens the scope of mobile gait analysis. The robust identification of initial contact (IC) and toe-off (TO) events is a vital task in mobile sensor-based gait analysis. Shank attached gyroscopes in combination with suitable algorithms for data processing can robustly and accurately complete this task for gait event detection. However, little research has considered gait detection algorithms that are applicable to different locomotion tasks. Does a gait event detection algorithm for various locomotion tasks provide comparable estimation accuracies as existing task-specific algorithms? Thirteen males, equipped with a gyroscope attached to the right shank, volunteered to perform nine different locomotion tasks consisting of linear movements and movements with a change of direction. A rule-based algorithm for IC and TO events was developed based on the shank sagittal plane angular velocity. The algorithm was evaluated against events determined by vertical ground reaction force. Absolute mean error (AME), relative absolute mean error (RAME) and Bland–Altman analysis was used to assess its accuracy. The average AME and RAME were 11 ± 3 ms and 3.07 ± 1.33 %, respectively, for IC and 29 ± 11 ms and 7.27 ± 2.92 %, respectively, for TO. Alterations of the walking movement, such as turns and types of running, slightly reduced the accuracy of IC and TO detection. In comparison to previous methods, increased or comparable accuracies for both IC and TO detection are shown. The study shows that the proposed algorithm is capable of detecting gait events for a variety of locomotion tasks by means of a single gyroscope located on the shank. In consequence, the algorithm can be applied to activities, which consist of various movements (e.g., soccer). Ultimately, this extends the use of mobile sensor-based gait analysis.
