Stride Length Detection using Mobile Devices By:- Guide:- Atuldanda Scott Pardue Shashanks Alex Dohrn
Overview About the project Progress Challenges Faced
About the Project The objective of the project is to measure the accurate length of a stride. Use of BUILT-IN inertial sensors to obtain instantaneous data from user mobile. Use of Accelerometer and Gyroscope. The current project is a sub-domain of a larger project(e.g Indoor Localization, Project TANGO)
Accelerometer And Gyroscope An accelerometer is a device that measures g-force. It gives all its data in Cartesian Co-Ordinates i.e. X, Y, Z. -WikipediaA gyroscope is a device for measuring or maintaining orientation, based on the principles of angular momentum. Mechanical gyroscopes typically comprise a spinning wheel or disc in which the axle is free to assume any orientation. This gives the orientation of X, Y, Z i.e. Roll, Pitch and Yaw. -Wikipedia
Ideal Graph of Accelerometer Component Value Time
Progress • Stage 1 • Acclimatization to JAVA and Android Development Environment. • Literature survey about the project. • Development of Android App to tap data from sensors.
Progress Stage 2 Exporting the data from Eclipse
Stage 3 • Sampling the data at required time interval. Progress
Progress Stage 4 Importing of data to MATLAB and Graphical Representation
Work in Progress Implement a Low Pass Filter eliminate noise Obtain the optimum sampling rate. To compute the distance covered in a given stride. Achieve a tolerance range of 5%. Optimize the code, to calculate the distance travelled on skate board.
