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 ...

Enhanced 6D measurement by integrating an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) with a 6D sensor unit of a laser tracker [PDF]
Optics and Lasers in Engineering, 2020 Abstract Six-degree-of-freedom (6D) sensors enhance the measurement capability of traditional three-degree-of-freedom (3D) laser trackers. However, the classical 6D measurement techniques still have shortcomings in actual use, such as the problem of line of sight and relatively low data acquisition rate.

Regression Model-Based Walking Speed Estimation Using Wrist-Worn Inertial Sensor. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Walking speed is widely used to study human health status. Wearable inertial measurement units (IMU) are promising tools for the ambulatory measurement of walking speed. Among wearable inertial sensors, the ones worn on the wrist, such as a watch or band,

Predicting Ground Reaction Forces in Sprint Running Using a Shank Mounted Inertial Measurement Unit
Proceedings, 2018 The transition from a stationary crouch on running-blocks to an erect running position is critical to success in sprint running. Three elite sprinters repeated five sprint starts on a 50 m-long instrumented running track each wearing three inertial ...
