Inertial measurement units are commonly used in a growing number of application fields to track or capture motions of kinematic chains, such as human limbs, exoskeletons or robotic actuators. A major challenge is the presence of magnetic…

Inertial motion capture is a promising approach for capturing motion outside the laboratory. However, as one major drawback, most of the current methods require different quantities to be calibrated or computed offline as part of the setup…

Inertial navigation systems for pedestrians are infrastructure-less and can achieve sub-meter accuracy in the short/medium period. However, when low-cost inertial measurement units (IMU) are employed for their implementation, they suffer…
