Ship motion measurement using an inertial measurement unit [PDF]
2015 IEEE 2nd World Forum on Internet of Things (WF-IoT), 2015 Traditional methods of measuring a vessel's motion involve the use of bulky sensor units which usually require cables. These devices are not only expensive, but are difficult and time-consuming to install. They are simply not affordable and do not provide owners of vessels with a cost effective way of measuring and monitoring their vessels' motion ...

Systematic Calibration for Ultra-High Accuracy Inertial Measurement Units
Sensors, 2016 An inertial navigation system (INS) has been widely used in challenging GPS environments. With the rapid development of modern physics, an atomic gyroscope will come into use in the near future with a predicted accuracy of 5 × 10−6°/h or better. However,

Validity of a Wearable Digital Insole for Assessing Gait ON and OFF in Parkinson's Disease
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective Gait impairment is a distinctive symptom of Parkinson's disease that negatively impact mobility. We assessed the validity of wearable digital insoles against a validated reference gait analysis system for measuring select gait characteristics in patients with Parkinson's disease. Methods A comparative analysis between digital insoles
