Integrated Inertial Measurement Unit
2019With the more advanced pitch and roll gyroscope designs and microfabrication platform, achieving consistent high performance in all three axes using robust high-frequency resonant MEMS gyroscopes becomes possible. This chapter presents the first demonstration of a high-performance timing and inertial measurement unit (TIMU) with robust 3-axis resonant ...

Static and dynamic validation of inertial measurement units
Gait & Posture, 2017Optical motion capture systems are used to assess human motion. While these systems provide a reliable analysis, they limit collection to a laboratory based setting. Devices such as Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs) have been developed as alternative tools. Commercially available IMUs are utilized for a variety of applications; however limited work has

Foot-mounted inertial measurement unit for activity classification
2014 36th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2014This paper proposes a classification technique for daily base activity recognition for human monitoring during physical therapy in home. The proposed method estimates the foot motion using single inertial measurement unit, then segments the motion into steps classify them by template-matching as walking, stairs up or stairs down steps. The results show

Load-embedded inertial measurement unit reveals lifting performance
Applied Ergonomics, 2018Manual lifting of loads arises in many occupations as well as in activities of daily living. Prior studies explore lifting biomechanics and conditions implicated in lifting-induced injuries through laboratory-based experimental methods. This study introduces a new measurement method using load-embedded inertial measurement units (IMUs) to evaluate ...

An integrated MEMS inertial measurement unit
2002 IEEE Position Location and Navigation Symposium (IEEE Cat. No.02CH37284), 2003With MEMS technologies, instrument subcomponents are integrated in the design to form individual gyroscopes and accelerometers on a single chip. This replaces the assembly of individual subcomponents which forms conventional instruments. Similarly, MEMS instrument components can be integrated to form complete inertial measurement units (IMUs ...

The Rise of Inertial Measurement Units
2017An inherent aspect of the development of wearable and wireless systems has been the progressive evolution of the inertial measurement unit. Although when preliminarily recommended for quantifying the aspects of human movement, the inertial measurement was not sufficiently developed for application as a wearable and wireless system.

Human pose recovery using wireless inertial measurement units
Physiological Measurement, 2012Many applications in rehabilitation and sports training require the assessment of the patient's status based on observation of their movement. Small wireless sensors, such as accelerometers and gyroscopes, can be utilized to provide a quantitative measure of the human movement for assessment.
