2. 1. A Symbolic Approach to Human Motion Analysis Using Inertial Sensors : Framework and Gait Analysis Study

   Author : Anita Sant'Anna; Thorsteinn Rögnvaldsson; Nicholas Wickström; Kamiar Aminian; Högskolan i Halmstad; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; symbolization; expert knowledge; gait analysis; inertial sensors;

   Abstract : Motion analysis deals with determining what and how activities are being performed by a subject, through the use of sensors. The process of answering the what question is commonly known as classification, and answering the how question is here referred to as characterization. READ MORE

4. 2. Sensor Fusion and Calibration of Inertial Sensors, Vision, Ultra-Wideband and GPS

   Author : Jeroen D. Hol; Thomas Schön; Fredrik Gustafsson; Bo Bernhardsson; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Sensor fusion; calibration; inertial sensors; vision; UWB; GPS; Automatic control; Reglerteknik;

   Abstract : The usage of inertial sensors has traditionally been confined primarily to the aviation and marine industry due to their associated cost and bulkiness. During the last decade, however, inertial sensors have undergone a rather dramatic reduction in both size and cost with the introduction of MEMS technology. READ MORE

5. 3. Inertial Sensor Arrays : Sensor Fusion and Calibration

   Author : Håkan Carlsson; Joakim Jaldén; Thomas Seel; KTH; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

   Abstract : Motion estimation using inertial sensors is today used in a wide range of applications, from aircraft navigation to inflatable bicycle helmets. The accuracy with which the motion can be estimated using inertial sensors depends on how large the measurement errors are. READ MORE

6. 4. Pose Estimation and Calibration Algorithms for Vision and Inertial Sensors

   Author : Jeroen Diederik Hol; Fredrik Gustafsson; Thomas Schön; Patric Jensfelt; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Pose estimation; Sensor fusion; Computer vision; Inertial navigation; Calibration; Automatic control; Reglerteknik;

   Abstract : This thesis deals with estimating position and orientation in real-time, using measurements from vision and inertial sensors. A system has been developed to solve this problem in unprepared environments, assuming that a map or scene model is available. READ MORE

7. 5. Inertial motion capture for ambulatory analysis of human movement and balance

   Author : Fredrik Olsson; Kjartan Halvorsen; Peter H. Veltink; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Inertial sensors; Human motion capture; Calibration; Neuromuscular control; Human balance; Tremor quantification;

   Abstract : Inertial sensors (accelerometers and gyroscopes) are ubiquitous in today’s society, where they can be found in many of our everyday mobile devices. These sensors are capable of recording the movement of the device, and by extension, the movement of humans carrying or interacting with the device. READ MORE
