Pedestrian Dead-Reckoning System
The goal of the Pedestrian Dead-Reckoning (PDR) project was to track the position of a human subject in real-time. The PDR system uses a foot-mounted Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU), which includes a three-axis gyroscope, a three-axis accelerometer, and a three-axis magnetometer. The IMU is strapped to the side or embedded in the heel of the user’s boot.
