Validation and Assessment of a Posture Measurement System with Magneto-Inertial Measurement Units
Inappropriate posture and the presence of spinal disorders require specific monitoring systems. In clinical settings, posture evaluation is commonly performed with visual observation, electrogoniometers or motion capture systems (MoCaps).

Fundamental Units of Measurement and Extra Dimensions
The space available to our perception is three-dimensional with full evidence. The development of physics led to the hypothesis of extra dimensions. It is believed that an important role in the unification of physics should play by the Planck units of ...

Fundamental Values of Length, Time, and Speed
In 2018, it was shown that the electromagnetic units of the MKSA system (the ampere, coulomb, ohm, volt, etc.) can be written using the base units of the MKS system: the meter (m), kilogram (kg) and second (s).

Measurement of respiratory rate with inertial measurement units
Demographic changes and increasing air pollution entail that monitoring of respiratory parameters is in the focus of research. In this study, two customary inertial measurement units (IMUs) are used to measure the breathing rate by using quaternions. One
