Analysis and modelling of MEMS inertial measurement unit
2012 International Conference on Localization and GNSS, 2012Thanks to advances in the development of Micro-Electromechanical Systems (MEMS), it has been possible to fabricate small dimension and cheap accelerometers and gyros, which are being used in many applications where the GPS/INS integration is carried out, as for example to identify track defects, navigation, geo-referencing, agriculture, etc.

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 ...

Measuring Arm Motions Using the Inertial Measurement Unit
2020 IEEE 2nd Global Conference on Life Sciences and Technologies (LifeTech), 2020This paper describes how to detect arm motions using Inertial measurement unit (IMU). The authors propose a method to attach the IMU to an upper arm and a lower arm as so to obtain the arm’s attitude information from the sensor’s data and thereby to detect the arm’s motions. Our experiment has shown that the arm’s flexion can be detected.

Driving a musculoskeletal model with inertial and magnetic measurement units
Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering, 2013We developed and evaluated a new kinematic driver for musculoskeletal models using ambulatory inertial and magnetic measurement units (IMMUs). The new driver uses the orientation estimates based on sensor fusion of each individual IMMU and benefits from two important properties of musculoskeletal models.

Low cost inertial measuring unit
IEEE PLANS 92 Position Location and Navigation Symposium Record, 2003A concept being explored is the use of an inexpensive IMU (inertial measuring unit) with the GPS (Global Positioning System). An inexpensive IMU can meet many of the same functional requirements as the high-accuracy system, with the exception of long-term position. For example, some applications for instrumenting a reference frame are antenna stability,

Research on measurement and modeling of micro-inertial-measurement unit
SPIE Proceedings, 2003Rate calibration and six position calibration tests are discussed about a kind of micro inertial measurement unit (MIMU). A simple mathematical model of micro gyroscope and accelerometer is designed, some model parameters such as bias, scale factor, cross-axis coupling factors etc are confirmed.
