A wireless micro inertial measurement unit (IMU) [PDF]
2012 IEEE International Instrumentation and Measurement Technology Conference Proceedings, 2012 In this paper, we present a wireless micro inertial measurement unit (IMU) with the smallest volume and weight requirements available at the moment. With a size of 18mm × 16mm × 4 mm, this IMU provides full control over the data of a three-axis accelerometer, a three-axis gyroscope, and a three-axis magnetometer.

Learning Pose Estimation for UAV Autonomous Navigation and Landing Using Visual-Inertial Sensor Data [PDF]
, 2020 In this work, we propose a robust network-in-the-loop control system for autonomous navigation and landing of an Unmanned-Aerial-Vehicle (UAV). To estimate the UAV’s absolute pose, we develop a deep neural network (DNN) architecture for visual-inertial ...

Assessment of Breathing Parameters Using an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU)-Based System [PDF]
Sensors, 2018 Breathing frequency (fB) is an important vital sign that—if appropriately monitored—may help to predict clinical adverse events. Inertial sensors open the door to the development of low-cost, wearable, and easy-to-use breathing-monitoring systems. The present paper proposes a new posture-independent processing algorithm for breath-by-breath extraction ...
