A very low cost prototype has been made for the spatial and temporal analysis of human movement using an integrated system of last generation smartphones and a highdefinition webcam, controlled by a laptop. The system can be used to analyze mainly planar motions in non-structured environments. In this paper, the accelerometer signal as captured by the 3D sensor embedded in one smartphone, and the position of colored markers derived by the webcam frames, are used for the computation of spatial-temporal parameters of gait. Accuracy of results is compared with that obtainable by a gold-standard instrumentation. The system is characterized by a very low cost and by a very high level of automation. It has been thought to be used by non-expert users in ambulatory settings.
