  • Utilising Accelerometer and Gyroscope in Smartphone to Detect Incidents on a Test Track for Cars
    Utilising accelerometer and gyroscope in smartphone to detect incidents on a test track for cars Carl-Johan Holst Data- och systemvetenskap, kandidat 2017 Luleå tekniska universitet Institutionen för system- och rymdteknik LULEÅ UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY BACHELOR THESIS Utilising accelerometer and gyroscope in smartphone to detect incidents on a test track for cars Author: Examiner: Carl-Johan HOLST Patrik HOLMLUND [email protected] [email protected] Supervisor: Jörgen STENBERG-ÖFJÄLL [email protected] Computer and space technology Campus Skellefteå June 4, 2017 ii Abstract Utilising accelerometer and gyroscope in smartphone to detect incidents on a test track for cars Every smartphone today includes an accelerometer. An accelerometer works by de- tecting acceleration affecting the device, meaning it can be used to identify incidents such as collisions at a relatively high speed where large spikes of acceleration often occur. A gyroscope on the other hand is not as common as the accelerometer but it does exists in most newer phones. Gyroscopes can detect rotations around an arbitrary axis and as such can be used to detect critical rotations. This thesis work will present an algorithm for utilising the accelerometer and gy- roscope in a smartphone to detect incidents occurring on a test track for cars. Sammanfattning Utilising accelerometer and gyroscope in smartphone to detect incidents on a test track for cars Alla smarta telefoner innehåller idag en accelerometer. En accelerometer analyserar acceleration som påverkar enheten, vilket innebär att den kan användas för att de- tektera incidenter så som kollisioner vid relativt höga hastigheter där stora spikar av acceleration vanligtvis påträffas.

  • Basic Principles of Inertial Navigation
    Basic Principles of Inertial Navigation Seminar on inertial navigation systems Tampere University of Technology 1 The five basic forms of navigation • Pilotage, which essentially relies on recognizing landmarks to know where you are. It is older than human kind. • Dead reckoning, which relies on knowing where you started from plus some form of heading information and some estimate of speed. • Celestial navigation, using time and the angles between local vertical and known celestial objects (e.g., sun, moon, or stars). • Radio navigation, which relies on radio‐frequency sources with known locations (including GNSS satellites, LORAN‐C, Omega, Tacan, US Army Position Location and Reporting System…) • Inertial navigation, which relies on knowing your initial position, velocity, and attitude and thereafter measuring your attitude rates and accelerations. The operation of inertial navigation systems (INS) depends upon Newton’s laws of classical mechanics. It is the only form of navigation that does not rely on external references. • These forms of navigation can be used in combination as well. The subject of our seminar is the fifth form of navigation – inertial navigation. 2 A few definitions • Inertia is the property of bodies to maintain constant translational and rotational velocity, unless disturbed by forces or torques, respectively (Newton’s first law of motion). • An inertial reference frame is a coordinate frame in which Newton’s laws of motion are valid. Inertial reference frames are neither rotating nor accelerating. • Inertial sensors measure rotation rate and acceleration, both of which are vector‐ valued variables. • Gyroscopes are sensors for measuring rotation: rate gyroscopes measure rotation rate, and integrating gyroscopes (also called whole‐angle gyroscopes) measure rotation angle.

All rights reserved. www.arpnjournals.com INVERTED PENDULUM TWO-WHEEL ROBOT USINGACCELEROMETER AND GYROSCOPE FOR ITS SENSORS Hartono Pranjoto, Diana Lestariningsih, Widya Andyardja and Calvin Prasetya Limantara Department of Electrical Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Widya Mandala Catholic University, Jalan Kalijudan, Surabaya, Indonesia E-Mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT An inverted pendulum is a pendulum - a free body hung from a fix point and can swing freely in all directions – that has its center of mass above its pivot point. Unlike regular pendulum which is inherently stable, an inverted pendulum is inherently unstable and must be actively balanced in order to remain upright by applying some force at the pivot point, thus moving the pivot point horizontally as a feedback system. The pivot point is moved using a simple vehicle consisting of two wheels that moves freely in one direction. The feedback control to move the pivot point horizontally is a sensor system consisting of solid state accelerometer and gyroscope. The accelerometer will detect the angle of the inverted pendulum device and the gyroscope will detect the rate of rate of change of angle and therefore measure the angular velocity. The vehicle robot is a two-wheel vehicle which is controlled independently using two independent DC motor. The DC motors are controlled by a microprocessor which controls the speed of the motors using pulse width modulation independently for each motor and the feedback on how to move the robot horizontally is by the accelerometer and gyroscope system which is mounted on the top of the robot.

  • User Activity Tracker Using Android Sensor
    USER ACTIVITY TRACKER USING ANDROID SENSOR THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Chenxi Song Graduate Program in Electrical and Computer Engineering The Ohio State University 2015 Master's Examination Committee: Prof. Xiaorui Wang, Advisor Prof. Liang Guo c Copyright by Chenxi Song 2015 ABSTRACT Physical activity is a prescription for helping decrease stress; relieve depression, anxiety, heartburn and constipation; increase happiness; and prevent diseases. Ev- eryone knows that exercise is vital to maintaining health, yet many people can't keep regular exercise even they had set targets for themselves. A main reason is that they don't have a convenient method to keep being aware of where they are against their goals at any given point in the process. In this thesis, we explore methods about using cell phone sensors to detect and track users daily activities and help the user to set personalized exercise goals, which includes: detect different motion pattern, measure amount of exercise of each pattern, calculate total amount of calories consumed and give a daily report of user activities - help user find their fit, stay motivated, and see how small steps make a big impact. Key Words: Android, Sensor, Pattern Match, Adaptive algorithm, Calorie Count Algorithm ii This document is dedicated to my dear families and friends. iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Without the help of the following people, I would not have been able to complete my thesis. My heartfelt thanks to: Dr. Xiaorui Wang, for being my mentor in research.
