Abstract: This paper constructed a database of the national representative level of a professional horse-rider by wearing a motion-capture suit attached with 16 inertial sensors under an inertial sensor-based wireless network environment, then made a visual comparative analysis through a few methods (graphical and statistical) on the values of all motion features (elbow angle, knee angle, knee-elbow distance, backbone angle and hip position) classified depending on horse types (using two horses named Warm-blood and Thoroughbred) and footpace types (at a trot and a canter) and obtained by various methods of calculating Euclidean distance, the second cosine, maximum and minimum values, and made a comparative analysis depending on motion features of a horse-rider by using MVN studio software. In the study, the experimental results confirmed the validity of the proposed method of obtaining the motion feature database of a horse-rider in the wireless sensor network environment and making an analytical system.
