Experimental Validation of Foot to Foot Range Measurements in Pedestrian Tracking
Conference Paper, Proceedings of 24th International Technical Meeting of The Satellite Division of the Institute of Navigation (ION GNSS '11), pp. 1386 - 1393, September, 2011
Abstract
A pedestrian tracking system using inertial sensors mounted on both feet is presented. Significant accuracy improvements are demonstrated, compared to single shoe tracking, by using ultrasonic foot-to-foot range measurements to constrain heading drift. A single complementary Kalman filter fuses data from both inertial measurement units and the range sensor. The system is composed of commercial and custom hardware. Experimental results collected over long durations and distances are presented.
