Inertial Measurement Unit to Segment Calibration Based on Physically Constrained Pose Generation

The accuracy of a motion capture (MoCap) system based on inertial measurement units (IMUs) depends on the IMU-to-segment (I2S) calibration, in which the IMU alignment relative to a body segment is calculated using a reference pose such as a standing T-pose. This study proposes a novel I2S calibration system for a reliable MoCap system. In this system, the reference pose for calibration is constrained by physical objects, and this pose is...
