Inertial Sensors Toolbox (InerSensTB)

A Matlab© library for real-time data processing of inertial sensors.

InerSensTB© is a collection of Matlab functions which implements a variety of algorithms initially created for the Silop. A partial list of the techniques made available is:

• gait event detection from COM biaxial acceleration
• gait phases detection from foot gyro
• step length estimation from vertical COM acceleration

Over the years the toolbox has been extended to other topics, as:

• paddling frequency estimation for flat water kayak
• jump energy/height estimation from COM acceleration
• squat-jump energy estimation from COM acceleration
• Activity identification in free-living conditions

The toolbox also includes a set of functions designed to simplify the real-time developing process. These functions includes:

• Automatic data acquisition from an Xsens XbusMaster device (more devices to be included)
• An event loop which manages the sampled data, and runs the previously planned algorithms.
• An algorithm dependency system, which allows an easy inter-algorithm communication process

This toolbox is released according to the GPLv3 license. More info: dalvarez@uniovi.es
