RealTimeKin
The OpenSenseRT System is a project using open-source software and hardware to compute the motions of body segments based on inertial measurement unit (IMU) data using the processing power of a microcontroller worn on the body. The architecture can be customized to track specified body segments. The components are off-the-shelf and cost approximately $120 for base components and $20 for each tracked body segment. This page aims to help replicate the system for use in other studies. For full technical details, please read our paper and check out our replication guide. The hardware can be assembled with common hand tools and does not require coding or soldering. We’ve created a video tutorial to demonstrate the system and the setup process. Check out the example demonstrations video!
