Improvement of Orientation Estimation in Pedestrian Navigation by Compensation of Magnetic Disturbances
Over the last few years there has been a growing interest in the domain of pedestrian navigation, stimulated by the increasing demand for Location Based Services. Pedestrian Dead Reckoning (PDR) based on MEMS sensors has been at the heart of most high-end ...
2008Ambulatory evaluation of 3D knee joint function in patients with ACL rupture using inertial sensors
In orthopaedics, outcome evaluation is currently recognized as a major challenge to improve the knowledge both about injuries and treatments. For anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture, various evaluation tools are available for routine uses: clinical ex ...
EPFL2008Map-based Autonomous Personal Localization and Tracking
Michel Bierlaire, Bertrand Merminod
An autonomous localisation and tracking method is a method independent from the reception of external data. In our approach we ignore methods like GPS- and WiFi- positioning and we focus on the use of inertial navigation system (INS) carried by the person ...
2007Algorithms for map-aided autonomous indoor pedestrian positioning and navigation
The personal positioning and navigation became a very challenging topic in our dynamic time. The urban canyons and particularly indoors represent the most difficult areas for personal navigation problematic. Problems like disturbed satellite signals make t ...
EPFL2007An Orientation Measuring System Suitable for Routine Uses Made by the Fusion of a 3D Gyroscope and a Magnetic Tracker
Kamiar Aminian, Julien Favre, Julien Chardonnens
Many studies have shown the efficacy of orientation and three-dimensional joint angle measurement for patient evaluation or rehabilitation purposes. But currently, the use of these systems for routine practice is questionable. The commercially available de ...

Michel Bierlaire, Bertrand Merminod
A navigation process is to start from a known (initial) position and to ensure a continued localisation of the user during the movement. Consider a pedestrian navigation system which contains a GPS receiver and a set of inertial sensors connected with the ...
2006Reliability of Direct Georeferencing Phase 1: An Overview of the Current Approaches and Possibilities., Checking and Improving of Digital Terrain Models / Reliability of Direct Georeferencing.
After some initial hesitations, the direct georeferencing (DG) of airborne sensors by GPS/INS is now a widely accepted approach in the airborne mapping industry. Implementing DG not only speeds up the mapping process and thus increases the productivity, bu ...
2006Motion tracking for human-robot interaction
This thesis aims at improving the perceptional side of interaction to enable the handling of more complex situations. For the Swiss National Exposition Expo.02 the robot RoboX and an event-driven interaction system have been designed by members of our lab. ...
EPFL2004A probabilistic framework for joint head tracking and pose estimation
Jean-Marc Odobez, Silèye Oumar Ba
Head Tracking and pose estimation are usually considered as two sequential and separate problems: pose is estimated on the head patch provided by a tracking module. However, precision in head pose estimation is dependent on tracking accuracy which itself c ...
