Open Source Hardware: Wireless Inertial Motion Capture System
Date
2024Author
Description
Project for building the wireless inertial motion capture system released by the Measurement and Sensor Technology Group at Technische Universität Darmstadt as open source hardware.
The system is based on a Raspberry Pi 4, or any compatible alternative host, as base station.
It offers a modular approach with a variable number of inertial measurement unit (IMU) modules.
The base station is required to provide a wireless access point for the ESP32-based IMU modules to connect to.
The modules stream their data via UDP to the host upon request.
The files for building the modules include electronics, housing, and the software.
Please find the full description in the corresponding publication, full instructions for usage in the README.md file.
