Dead Reckoning from the Pocket
نویسنده
چکیده
We present a novel approach to enable dead reckoning in a scenario with unconstrained placement of a device in the user’s trouser pockets. Utilizing the rotation of the device due to body motion, we estimate the user’s walking direction robustly to different placements in the pocket and without additional body-worn sensors.

Probabilistic Infrastructureless Positioning in the Pocket
With the increasing popularity of smart phones, knowing the accurate position of users has become critical to many context-aware applications. In this paper, we introduce a novel Probabilistic Infrastructureless Navigation (ProbIN) system for GPS-challenging environments. ProbIN uses inertial and magnetic sensors in mobile phones to derive users’ current location. Instead of relying on basic la...
متن کاملInertial Pocket Navigation System: Unaided 3D Positioning
Inertial navigation systems use dead-reckoning to estimate the pedestrian's position. There are two types of pedestrian dead-reckoning, the strapdown algorithm and the step-and-heading approach. Unlike the strapdown algorithm, which consists of the double integration of the three orthogonal accelerometer readings, the step-and-heading approach lacks the vertical displacement estimation. We prop...

This paper proposes a new approach for calibration of dead reckoning process. Using the well-known UMBmark (University of Michigan Benchmark) is not sufficient for a desirable calibration of dead reckoning. Besides, existing calibration methods usually require explicit measurement of actual motion of the robot. Some recent methods use the smart encoder trailer or long range finder sensors such ...
متن کاملThe Florida State University College of Arts and Sciences Accuracy and Fairness in Dead Reckoning Based Distributed Multiplayer Games
Distributed real-time multiplayer games are played over a network among a set of players competing against each other and/or against Artificial Intelligence (AI). A latency hiding and bandwidth reduction technique known as ‘Dead Reckoning’ [6] and [24] is often used in these games. The games use dead reckoning vectors to inform other (at a distance) participating players about the movement of a...
متن کاملDead Reckoning Using Play Patterns in a Simple 2D Multiplayer Online Game
In today’s gaming world, a player expects the same play experience whether playing on a local network or online with many geographically distant players on congested networks. Because of delay and loss, there may be discrepancies in the simulated environment from player to player, likely resulting in incorrect perception of events. It is desirable to develop methods that minimize this problem. ...
