A study to trial the use of inertial non-optical motion capture for ergonomic analysis of manufacturing work [PDF]
It is going to be increasingly important for manufacturing system designers to incorporate human activity data and ergonomic analysis with other performance data in digital design modelling and system monitoring. However, traditional methods of capturing

Comparing inertial motion sensors for capturing human micromotion
The paper presents a study of the noise level of accelerometer data from a mobile phone compared to three commercially available IMU-based devices (AX3, Equivital, and Movesense) and a marker-based infrared motion capture system (Qualisys). The sensors are compared in static positions and for measuring human micromotion, with larger motion sequences as

A wearable motion capture device able to detect dynamic motion of human limbs
Current wearable motion capture technologies are unable to accurately detect dynamic motion of human limbs due to drift and instability problems. Here, the authors report a wearable motion capture device combining tri-axis velocity sensor and inertial ...

An improved semi-synthetic approach for creating visual-inertial odometry datasets
Capturing outdoor visual-inertial datasets is a challenging yet vital aspect of developing robust visual-inertial odometry (VIO) algorithms. A significant hurdle is that high-accuracy-ground-truth systems (e.g., motion capture) are not practical for ...

Motion Capture: From Radio Signals to Inertial Signals [PDF]
The study of the motion of individuals allows to gather relevant information on a person status, to be used in several fields (e.g., medical, sport, and entertainment). Over the past decade, the research activity in motion capture has benefited from the progress of portable and mobile sensors, paving the way toward the use of motion capture techniques ...

Measurement of Pelvic Orientation Angles during Sprinting Using a Single Inertial Sensor
The purpose of this study was to elucidate pelvic orientation angles using a single lower back-mounted inertial sensor during sprinting. A single inertial sensor was attached to each sprinter’s lower back, used to measure continuous pelvic movements ...

High-Frequency Voronoi Noise Reduced by Smoothed Mesh Motion [PDF]
We describe a technique for improving the performance of hydrodynamics codes which employ a moving Voronoi mesh. Currently, such codes are susceptible to high-frequency noise produced by rapid adjustments in the grid topology on the smallest scales.
