Abstract Indoor Location Based Services (LBS), such as indoor navigation and tracking, still
have to deal with both technical and non-technical challenges. For this reason, they have …

Gait analysis continues to be an important technique for many clinical applications to
diagnose and monitor certain diseases. Many mental and physical abnormalities cause …

In recent years, MEMS inertial sensors (3D accelerometers and 3D gyroscopes) have
become widely available due to their small size and low cost. Inertial sensor measurements …

Inertial sensors play a pivotal role in indoor localization, which in turn lays the foundation for
pervasive personal applications. However, low-cost inertial sensors, as commonly found in …

Distinct gait characteristics like short steps and shuffling gait are prototypical signs
commonly observed in Parkinson's disease. Routinely assessed by observation through …

A detailed and quantitative gait analysis can provide evidence of various gait impairments in
elderly people. To provide an objective decision-making basis for gait analysis, simple …

Gait is the locomotion attained through the movement of limbs and gait analysis examines
the patterns (normal/abnormal) depending on the gait cycle. It contributes to the …

The challenges of self-contained sensor based pedestrian dead reckoning (PDR) are mainly
sensor installation errors and path integral errors caused by sensor variance, and both may …

Gait detection plays an important role in areas where spatial-temporal gait parameters are
needed. Inertial sensors are now sufficiently small in size and light in weight for collection of …

Fifteen years have passed since the publication of Foxlin's seminal paper “Pedestrian
tracking with shoe-mounted inertial sensors”. In addition to popularizing the zero-velocity …
