An Inertial Uni-Axial Interferometer-Based Accelerometer for Harsh Environments

Mark Edward John Butcher, Gerard Aliana Cervera

For high-impact devices, subsequent vibrations have as much influence on the deterioration of the mechanical structure as the impact itself. To mitigate the consequences of both impacts and resulting vibrations, it is crucial to accurately understand the p ...

Human Head Yaw Estimation based on Two 3-axis Accelerometers

Hervé Lissek, Gilles André Courtois, Vincent Pierre Olivier Grimaldi

The estimation of the orientation of an object, and a human head in particular, can be defined by the Euler angles: the yaw, pitch and roll. The robust and drift-free estimation of those angles is usually achieved with the data from several sensors such as ...

Proof Of Concept Of A Graphene-Based Resonant Accelerometer

Luis Guillermo Villanueva Torrijo, Daniel Moreno Garcia

Acceleration measurements are fundamental in applications such as consumer electronics, navigation, automotive safety and Internet of things (IoT). In comparison with capacitive or piezoresistive MEMS accelerometers, resonant graphene accelerometers have t ...

Seek and learn: Automated identification of microevents in animal behaviour using envelopes of acceleration data and machine learning

Kamiar Aminian, Hooman Dejnabadi, Pritish Chakravarty

Animal‐borne accelerometers have been used across more than 120 species to infer biologically significant information such as energy expenditure and broad behavioural categories. While the accelerometer’s high sensitivity to movement and fast response time ...

Sensor and the Beast: Generalised Methods to Recognise Animal Behaviour and Quantify Energy Expenditure Using Inertial Sensors, and Applications

Pritish Chakravarty

How an animal allocates time and energy to different activities has repercussions for its survival, fitness, and response to changing environmental conditions. Fine-scale information on animal behaviour and energy expenditure can help develop better inform ...

Behavioural compass: animal behaviour recognition using magnetometers

Kamiar Aminian, Pritish Chakravarty, Maiki Maalberg

Animal-borne data loggers today often house several sensors recording simultaneously at high frequency. This offers opportunities to gain fine-scale insights into behaviour from individual-sensor as well as integrated multi-sensor data. In the context of b ...

Is there a relationship between footstep-impact locations and measured signal characteristics?

Ian Smith, Yves Sylvain Gilles Reuland, Sai Ganesh Sarvotham Pai, Slah Drira

Building utilization can be enhanced by tracking occupants. Non-intrusive tracking of occupants using floor-vibration measurements is beneficial for many smart-building applications such as energy consumption, security enhancement, and care-giving. Also, u ...

A novel biomechanical approach for animal behaviour recognition using accelerometers

Kamiar Aminian, Pritish Chakravarty

Data from animal-borne inertial sensors are widely used to investigate several aspects of an animal's life, such as energy expenditure, daily activity patterns and behaviour. Accelerometer data used in conjunction with machine learning algorithms have b ...

Optical Force Control Using Phase-Gradient Metasurfaces

Olivier Martin, Karim Achouri, Hsiang-Chu Wang

We propose to control the motion of nanoparticles using phase-gradient metasurfaces. The latter are used to generate surface waves, which put the particles into motion, when illuminated by a normally incident plane wave. We present an initial study of the ...

DrinkSense: Characterizing Youth Drinking Behavior using Smartphones

Daniel Gatica-Perez, Darshan Santani

Alcohol consumption is the number one risk factor for morbidity and mortality among young people. In late adolescence and early adulthood, excessive drinking and intoxication are more common than in any other life period, increasing the risk of adverse phy ...
