Upper body motion tracking with inertial sensors

2010 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Biomimetics, 2010
We introduce a motion tracking method of arbitrary human upper body motion. Low cost wearable inertial sensors are employed in our approach to track the upper body movement in 3D space and in real time. We first establish a kinematic chain of a human upper body consisting of a trunk and two limbs.

Inertial sensor fusion for 3D camera tracking

2012 20th Signal Processing and Communications Applications Conference (SIU), 2012
It is well known in a Bayesian filtering framework, the use of inertial sensors such as accelerometers and gyroscopes improves 3D tracking performance compared to using camera measurements only. The performance improvement is more evident when the camera undergoes a high degree of motion.

Location and tracking of pedestrians based on inertial navigation

Proceedings of the 1st International Conference on Wireless Technologies for Humanitarian Relief, 2011
The solution addressed here is based on inertial navigation: the output (linear acceleration and angular velocity) of a small-size inertial measurement unit, weared by the operator to be tracked, is processed to estimate the present location and the walked path. This information can be transmitted outside the intervention area, e.g.

Pedestrian Tracking with Shoe-Mounted Inertial Sensors

IEEE Computer Graphics and Applications, 2005
A navigation system that tracks the location of a person on foot is useful for finding and rescuing firefighters or other emergency first responders, or for location-aware computing, personal navigation assistance, mobile 3D audio, and mixed or augmented reality applications.

Shoulder and Elbow Joint Angle Tracking With Inertial Sensors

IEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering, 2012
Wearable inertial systems have recently been used to track human movement in and outside of the laboratory. Continuous monitoring of human movement can provide valuable information relevant to individuals' level of physical activity and functional ability.

Inertial tracking for mobile augmented reality

IMTC/2002. Proceedings of the 19th IEEE Instrumentation and Measurement Technology Conference (IEEE Cat. No.00CH37276), 2003
Augmented Reality applications require the tracking of moving objects in real-time. Tracking is defined as the measurement of object position and orientation in a scene coordinate system. We present a new combination of silicon micromachined accelerometers and gyroscopes which have been assembled into a six degree of freedom (6 DoF) inertial tracking ...

Visual-inertial tracking on Android for Augmented Reality applications

2012 IEEE Workshop on Environmental Energy and Structural Monitoring Systems (EESMS), 2012
Augmented Reality (AR) aims to enhance a person's vision of the real world with useful information about the surrounding environment. Amongst all the possible applications, AR systems can be very useful as visualization tools for structural and environmental monitoring. While the large majority of AR systems run on a laptop or on a head-mounted device,

A method for mast motion tracking using inertial sensors

2016 13th International Multi-Conference on Systems, Signals & Devices (SSD), 2016
In windsurfing, pumping is a reference technique for improving sailing performance and speed. This technique depends on both navigation and athlete physical conditions. For coaches and athletes, the masthead trajectory during pumping is a good indicator to identify the technique being used.

Optical-inertial tracking with active markers and changing visibility

2012 IEEE/RSJ International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems, 2012
This paper presents an optical-inertial tracking algorithm with explicit and assured optical marker identification. Active optical markers are sequentially or simultaneously triggered to achieve a maximum in quantity and quality of measurements available for tracking. Markers that appear in a camera image are identified by individual activation and are
