     In order to keep the following description of the embodiments of the present disclosure clear and concise, detailed descriptions of known functions and known components are omitted in the present disclosure. 
     A system for monitoring movement is provided according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in  FIG. 1 , the system includes a muscle movement sensor  10 , a movement capturing device  20  and a processing device  30 , wherein the muscle movement sensor  10  and the movement capturing device  20  are both connected to the processing device  30 . 
     The muscle movement sensor  10  is configured to acquire muscle movement information of a moving part of a living body (such as a human body or an animal) in the case that the muscle movement sensor  10  is fixed onto the skin of the moving part. The moving part herein refers to the position where a corresponding action or movement is achieved via the contraction, stretching and other deformations of a muscle group in the living body. The muscle group herein includes at least one muscle, such as a single muscle or a muscle combination of multiple muscles. The muscle movement information herein refers to the deformation information of the muscle group during the process that the living body performs an action, and the deformation herein may refer to muscle deformation such as the contraction and stretching. For example, the muscles herein may refer to biceps brachii, latissimus dorsi, or the like. 
     The movement capturing device  20  is configured to acquire whole movement information of the living body. The whole movement information herein is configured to describe a whole movement situation of the living body in response to an action. 
     The processing device  30  can acquire the muscle movement information acquired by the muscle movement sensor  10 , and the whole movement information acquired by the movement capturing device  20 . 
     In some embodiments, the muscle movement sensor  10  may further be configured to transmit the acquired muscle movement information to the processing device  30 , such that the processing device  30  is capable of acquiring the muscle movement information. Exemplarily, the processing device  30  may read a memory of the muscle movement sensor  10  to acquire the muscle movement information. In this case, there may be no need for the muscle movement sensor  10  to transmit the muscle movement information to the processing device  30 . Exemplarily, as shown in  FIG. 1 , the system for monitoring movement may further include a communication device  40 . The communication device  40  is connected to the muscle movement sensor  10 , and is configured to acquire the muscle movement information and transmit the muscle movement information to the processing device  30 . 
     It should be noted that the communication device  40  herein may include a communication chip. The communication chip that the communication device  40  adopted is compatible with at least one communication protocol such as the Bluetooth communication protocol, the wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi) communication protocol, the Zigbee communication protocol or the like, which are used in hospitals and rehabilitation centers. 
     Similarly, the movement capturing device  20  may further transmit the acquired whole movement information to the processing device  30 . Alternatively, the whole movement information is read by the processing device  30  from the memory of the movement capturing device  20 . In this case, there may be no need for the movement capturing device  20  to transmit the whole movement information to the processing device  30 . Alternatively, the system for monitoring movement may further include another communication device (not shown in  FIG. 1 ). The communication device is connected to the movement capturing device  20 , and is configured to acquire the whole movement information and transmit the whole movement information to the processing device  30 . 
     The processing device  30  is configured to determine a movement parameter of the a muscle of the moving part of the living body based on the acquired muscle movement information and the whole movement information. 
     In summary, in the system for monitoring movement according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the muscle movement sensor is capable of acquiring the muscle movement information of the moving part, and the movement capturing device is capable of acquiring the whole movement information of the living body. Furthermore, the processing device determines the movement parameter of the moving part based on not only the whole movement information but also the muscle movement information of the moving part. It can be seen that the processing device can determine the movement parameter of the moving part by combining the movement situation of the moving part with the whole movement situation of the living body. Therefore, the movement parameter determined by the processing device is more accurate. 
     In some embodiments, the muscle movement sensor  10  may be in a form of a sensing film, so as to acquire the muscle movement information of the human body more conveniently. For example, as shown in  FIG. 2 , the muscle movement sensor  10  includes a substrate  11 , an information capturing film layer  12  and an insulative packaging layer  13  which are stacked in sequence. The insulative packaging layer  13  is configured to package the information capturing film layer  12 . In the case that the muscle movement sensor  10  is fixed onto the moving part of the living body, the information capturing film layer  12  in the muscle movement sensor  10  is configured to acquire the muscle movement information of the moving part. 
     In an exemplary embodiment, referring to  FIG. 2  and  FIG. 3  ( FIG. 3  is a top view of the substrate and the information capturing film layer shown in  FIG. 2 ), the information capturing film layer  12  includes a plurality of conductive films  121  (such as metal films), a plurality of data lines  122  and a ground line  123  (the data lines  122  and the ground line  123  are not shown in  FIG. 2 ), which are disposed on the substrate  11 . The muscle movement sensor  10  further includes a converter  15 . The converter  15  may be a single chip microcomputer, a field-programmable gate array (FPGA), or the like. The single chip microcomputer may be an embedded single chip microcomputer (also known as an STM32 single chip microcomputer), or the like. 
     The plurality of conductive films  121  are connected to the plurality of data lines  122  in one-to-one correspondence, and the ground line  123  and the data lines  122  are all connected to the converter  15 . Referring to  FIG. 3  and  FIG. 4  ( FIG. 2  shows a region where the region Q of the muscle sensor is disposed in  FIG. 4 , and the converter  15  is not shown in  FIG. 4 ). The substrate  11  is provided with an output interface  14 . The data lines  122  and the ground line  123  may be all connected to the output interface  14 . The converter  15  may also be connected to the output interface  14  and receive electrical signals on the data lines  122  and the ground line  123  via the output interface  14 . In some embodiments, in the case that the system for monitoring movement includes a communication device  40 , the converter  15  may be connected to the communication device  40 . 
     The converter is configured to generate a capacitance (that is, the capacitance is formed by the conductive film  121  and the ground line  123 ) corresponding to the conductive film  121  connected to each of the plurality of the data lines  122  based on an electrical signal on each of the plurality of the data lines  122  and an electrical signal on the ground line  123 . At this time, the muscle movement information includes capacitances corresponding to the plurality of conductive films  121 . 
     In some embodiments, in the case that the converter is connected to the communication device  40 , in response to acquiring the muscle movement information, the converter may first perform analogue-to-digital (A/D) conversion on the muscle movement information, and store the muscle movement information subjected to the A/D conversion locally by, such as, direct memory access (DMA). Then, the converter may transmit the locally stored muscle movement information to the communication device by, for example, a universal synchronous/asynchronous receiver/transmitter (USART). 
     In the case that the converter is not connected to the communication device  40 , if there is a need for the converter to send the muscle movement information to the processing device  30 , and the converter may send the muscle movement information to the processing device  30  by sending the muscle movement information to the communication device  40 . 
     Further, in the case that the muscle movement information includes the capacitances corresponding to the plurality of conductive films  121 , the processing device  30  is configured to determine a pressure exerted on each of the plurality of conductive films  121  based on the capacitances corresponding to the plurality of conductive films  121 , and determine the movement parameter based on the forces applied to the plurality of conductive films  121  and the whole movement information. 
     It should be noted that in a moving process of the living body, the muscle of a moving part are stretched or compressed. At this time, the degree of extrusion exerted, by the muscle, on the conductive films adjacent to muscle changes, and the forces applied to the conductive films change accordingly. Therefore, the capacitance (the capacitance corresponding to the conductive film) formed by the conductive film and the ground line changes. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the forces applied to all the conductive films are respectively determined by capturing the capacitances of the conductive films, and these forces are capable of reflecting the movement situation of the muscle of the moving part. 
     In some embodiments, the substrate  11 , the information capturing film layer  12  and the insulative packaging layer  13  are all flexible, for example, made of flexible materials. In this way, the muscle movement sensor  10  is bendable, such that the muscle movement sensor  10  is capable of conveniently acquiring the muscle movement information of the moving part. Not all of these film layers need to be flexible, which is not limited in the embodiment of present disclosure. 
     In some embodiments, referring to  FIG. 3 , in the case that the information capturing film layer  12  includes the plurality of conductive films  121 , these conductive films  121  may be arranged on the substrate  11  in an array. For example, these conductive films  121  may be arranged between the substrate  11  and the insulative packaging layer  13  in a predetermined fashion. The predetermined fashion herein may be determined based on a shape of the substrate  11  and a distribution region of the muscle of the moving part. For example, conductive films  121  arranged between the substrate  11  and the insulative packaging layer  13  may be in 2 rows and 3 columns, or 3 rows and 3 columns, or 4 rows and  5  columns, or in other configurations. 
     In addition, it is considered that the muscle movement sensor needs to cover a large area of skin of the moving part in response to acquiring the muscle movement information of the moving part of the living body (also referred to as a subject). Thus, in order to avoid affecting the movement of the living body, the material of the film layer (the insulative packaging layer) proximal to the skin in the muscle movement sensor may include an artificial skin material with elasticity and contractility, such that interference in the movement of the living body can be as little as possible. 
     Further, the muscle movement sensor is in a shape of an elongated strip, a crescent, a ring, or the like, which is not limited in the embodiment of present disclosure. 
     The shape and the fixing fashion of the muscle movement sensor may be determined based on different positions of the moving part. For example, in the case of acquiring the muscle movement information of the moving part where the upper arm biceps brachii, deltoid muscle, or the like is located, the muscle movement sensor may be configured in a ring shape and in an armband type, such that the muscle movement sensor is fixed onto an arm in a twisting fashion, shoulder, or other positions. For another example, in the case of acquiring the muscle movement information of the moving part where a latissimus dorsi muscle, an infraspinatus muscle, or the like of a back is located, the muscle movement sensor may be set in a crescent or an elongated strip shape, and the muscle movement sensor may be fixed onto the back or other positions of the human body in a tiled fashion. 
     Further, referring to  FIG. 3 , the positions of the conductive films  121  in the information capturing film layer on the substrate  11  are not limited. For example, an example in which the substrate  11  includes a middle region and edge regions on both sides of the middle region is taken for illustration. As shown in  FIG. 3 , the plurality of conductive films  121  may be arranged in the middle region of the substrate  11 , and no conductive film  121  is arranged on the edge regions. Exemplarily, the plurality of conductive films  121  are uniformly arranged on the substrate  11  (this arrangement is not shown in  FIG. 3 ). In this case, the conductive films  121  are arranged in both the middle region and the edge regions of the substrate  11 . 
     In an exemplary embodiment, if it is necessary to acquire the muscle movement information of the moving part (such as an upper arm) where biceps brachii, deltoid muscle, or the like is located, the muscle movement sensor is configured in a ring shape, and the muscle movement sensor is fixed onto the upper arm of the human body in the armband type. In this case, the plurality of conductive films  121  may be arranged in the middle region of the substrate  11 , such that the muscle movement information of the upper arm acquired by the muscle movement sensor includes the movement information of the biceps brachii. 
     In another exemplary embodiment, if it is necessary to acquire the muscle movement information of the moving part (such as a back) where the latissimus dorsi muscle is located, and the muscle movement sensor is configured in a strip shape, such that the muscle movement sensor is fixed onto the back of the human body in the tiled fashion. In this case, the conductive films  121  may be arranged in the middle region and the edge regions of the substrate  11 . 
     In another exemplary embodiment, if it is necessary to acquire the muscle movement information of the moving part (such as a shoulder) where the infraspinatus muscle is located, the muscle movement sensor is configured in a crescent shape, such that the muscle movement sensor is fixed onto the shoulder in the tiled fashion. The conductive films  121  may be arranged in the middle region and the edge regions of the substrate  11 . 
     Further, the muscle movement sensor may be fixed onto the moving part of the living body by a biocompatible adhesive (a bonding agent). Before the muscle movement sensor is fixed onto the moving part of the living body, the surface of the insulative packaging layer of the muscle movement sensor distal from the substrate may be coated with the biocompatible adhesive, and then the muscle movement sensor coated with the biocompatible adhesive may be fixed onto the moving part. In some embodiments, an orthographic projection of a coating position of the biocompatible adhesive on the insulative packaging layer on the substrate may be outside an orthographic projection of the information capturing film layer on the substrate, or may be overlapped with the orthographic projection of the information capturing film layer, which is not limited in the present disclosure. 
     The biocompatible adhesive needs to be in contact with skin of the moving part; therefore, the biocompatible adhesive should not be harmful to the skin (such as causing no skin allergy). For safety in use, the muscle movement sensor may be cleaned and disinfected with medical alcohol upon each use, and the muscle movement sensor may be fixed onto the moving part by the biocompatible adhesive  12  when being reused. 
     In the above embodiment, an example in which the information capturing film layer  12  includes the plurality of conductive films  121 , the plurality of data lines  122  and the ground line  123  is taken for illustration. In some embodiments, the information capturing film layer  12  may also be practiced in other ways. For example, the information capturing film layer includes a first conductive film, an insulative layer and a second conductive film which are stacked on the substrate  11  in sequence, rather than includes the plurality of conductive films  121 , the plurality of data lines  122  and the ground line  123 , and both the first conductive film and the second conductive film are connected to a converter. The converter is configured to determine a capacitance formed by the two conductive films and the insulative layer based on electrical signals on the two conductive films. In this case, the muscle movement information includes the capacitance. 
     Brief introduction is given to the muscle movement sensor  10  above, and the movement capturing device  20  is briefly introduced hereafter. 
     Referring to  FIG. 1 , the movement capturing device  20  may include an infrared sensor  201 , and for example, the movement capturing device  20  may be an infrared video camera or the like. The movement capturing device  20  may not include the infrared sensor, and for example, the movement capturing device  20  may be a three-dimensional camera or the like. 
     The movement capturing device  20  may represent the whole movement information of the living body via a movement joint diagram. The movement joint diagram herein is represented by dots and lines. The movement joint diagram includes a plurality of nodes and lines connecting the nodes, wherein the nodes represent joints of the living body and the lines represent limbs of the living body. In this way, the whole movement situation of the living body may be described most concisely and clearly by the movement joint diagram. 
     In the case that the muscle movement sensor  10  and the movement capturing device  20  are briefly introduced, the processing device  30  is briefly introduced according to the embodiment of the present disclosure. 
     It can be seen from the above that, the processing device  30  is configured to determine a movement parameter of a muscle of the moving part of the living body based on the muscle movement information and the whole movement information. In some embodiments, upon acquiring the muscle movement information and the whole movement information, the processing device may first perform basic signal processing such as signal amplification, signal filtering and signal decomposition on the muscle movement information and the whole movement information. Then, the processing device  30  may establish a corresponding relationship between actions in the whole movement information and changes (e.g., contraction, stretching, or other changes) of each of the muscles in the muscle movement information. In this way, the processing device  30  may analyze the changes of the muscles of the moving part in movement based on the different actions, so as to acquire the movement ability parameter of the muscles of the moving part. 
     In some embodiments, the analysis may be performed by, for example, analyzing force application parameters from both lateral and longitudinal aspects. 
     For example, in the case that a lateral analysis is adopted, the processing device  30  may acquire a first force application parameter of each of the muscles of the moving part of the living body in a same action. Then, the processing device  30  may accurately acquire the movement ability parameter (the movement ability parameter of the muscle may be a score on the movement ability of the muscle) of at least one muscle of the moving part based on the first force application parameters. An abnormal parameter among these movement ability parameters can be found by comparing these movement ability parameters, such that a targeted medical treatment or rehabilitation training plan is designed. 
     In the case that a longitudinal analysis is adopted, the processing device  30  may acquire a second force application parameter of a same muscle of the moving part of the living body in different actions. Then, the processing device  30  may determine the movement ability parameter of at least one muscle of the moving part based on the second force application parameters. For example, the processing device may acquire force application parameters of a same muscle at different times by combining the muscle movement information and the whole movement information based on a time axis, and determine these force application parameters as the second force application parameters. Furthermore, the processing device  30  may evaluate an effect of rehabilitation therapy or exercise training based on the second force application parameters, such that a next stage of medical treatment or rehabilitation training plan can be designed. 
     In some embodiments, the processing device  30  may also determine the movement ability parameter of at least one muscle of the moving part based on both the first force application parameter and second force application parameter. It can be seen that the movement ability parameter of the at least one muscle of the moving part is related to at least one of the first force application parameter and the second force application parameter. 
     Results of the lateral analysis and longitudinal analysis may be displayed by, for example, a display device or the like. For example, referring to  FIG. 1 , the processing device  30  is connected to the display device  00 . The processing device  30  is further configured to control the display device  00  to display the above movement parameters, such as at least one of the second force application parameter, the first force application parameter, and the movement ability parameter. 
     It should be noted that the system for monitoring movement according to the present disclosure may include the display device, or may not include the display device, which is not limited in the embodiment of present disclosure. The display device may be a desktop computer, a TV, a tablet computer, a mobile phone, a display panel, or any other product or component with a display function. 
     It can be seen from the above that the muscle movement sensor  10  is closely attached to a muscle of the moving part of the living body to acquire the muscle movement information such as contraction and stretching of the muscle, so as to, for example, monitor the muscle of the moving part. The processing device  30  may further acquire (e.g., acquire in real time) the movement parameter of the muscle of the moving part by comparing and analyzing the muscle movement information and the whole movement information of the living body acquired by the movement capturing device  20 , so as to evaluate the effect of the rehabilitation therapy and exercise training on the muscle of the moving part. 
     The movement parameters of a muscle of the moving part are applicable to rehabilitation training and sports competition training. For example, in rehabilitation training, a rehabilitation state of the muscles may be directly and timely determined based on the movement parameters of the muscles of the moving part, such that the reasonability of design of training actions and the reasonability of a plan for a follow-up training may be determined. For another example, in sports competition training, based on the movement parameters of the muscles of the moving part, a training effect may be effectively determined, which serves as a basis for the plan for the follow-up training, and a physical fatigue state of an athlete is monitored, which serves a basis for real-time changes of training intensity, thereby avoiding overuse-induced sprain and strain or stress-induced sprain and strain. 
     In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the movement situations of different muscles can be visually compared laterally by capturing the muscle movement information of the moving part and the whole movement information of the living body, such that the abnormal position in the moving part can be accurately determined. In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the movement situations of the muscles of the moving part at different times may also be compared longitudinally, such that the effect of medical treatment or training can be effectively evaluated. 
     In summary, in the system for monitoring movement according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the muscle movement sensor is capable of acquiring the muscle movement information of the moving part, and the movement capturing device is capable of acquiring the whole movement information of the living body. Furthermore, the processing device determines the movement parameter of the moving part based on not only the whole movement information but also the muscle movement information of the moving part. It can be seen that the processing device can determine the movement parameter of the moving part by combining the movement situation of the moving part with the whole movement situation of the living body. Therefore, the movement parameter determined by the processing device is more accurate. 
     In the related art, monitoring devices for rehabilitation training mainly include exoskeleton detecting devices or electromyography capturing and detecting devices. Although these detecting devices for rehabilitation training all use method of detecting joint movement, these detection methods fails to distinguish the movement information of a single muscle in the case that muscle groups work in cooperation. Furthermore, these two detecting devices have great limitations in practical use. The exoskeleton detecting device largely affects movement of a user, and thus cannot monitor the real muscle situation. Therefore, the exoskeleton detecting device are not applicable to sports or trainings. The electromyography capturing and detecting device is generally used in rehabilitation training programs based on electromyography capturing in research papers. The electromyography capturing and detecting device is mainly used for rehabilitation training aimed at symptoms caused by nerve injuries such as stroke and hemiplegia, but is not applicable to symptoms of impaired physical movement abilities such as tendon rupture and muscle tear. 
     The system for monitoring movement according to the present disclosure can determine the movement parameter of the moving part by combining the movement situation of the moving part with the whole movement situation of the living body. Therefore, the movement parameter determined by the system for monitoring movement is more accurate. In addition, only a few components (e.g., the muscle movement sensor) are required to be fixed on the living body in the system for monitoring movement, and the muscle movement sensor exerts a smaller impact on the movement of the living body. Therefore, the system for monitoring movement according to the present disclosure may be suitable for sports or training, and is capable of monitoring the real muscle situation. Moreover, the system for monitoring movement according to the present disclosure is capable of monitoring the movement parameter of the muscles, and thus the system is applicable to the symptoms of impaired physical movement ability such as tendon rupture and muscle tear. 
     An embodiment of the present disclosure further provides a method for monitoring movement. The method may be applicable to any system for monitoring movement (such as the system for monitoring movement shown in  FIG. 1 ) according to the embodiment of the present disclosure. As shown in  FIG. 5 , the method for monitoring movement includes the following processes.
