Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs) in Drowning Prevention: An Exploratory Study

open access: yesInternational Journal of Aquatic Research and Education, 2015
The use of inertial measurement unit (IMUs) sensors in competitive swimming movement analysis has become increasingly popular but has not been applied to measuring water competencies related to drowning prevention. This study explored the potential use of IMU sensors in three simulated water competency activities in a pool environment.
