An IMU-based Wearable Presentation Pointing Device

The IEICE Information and Communication Technology Forum 2016 - ICTF 2016, Patras, Greece, 6-8 July 2016.

Abstract: Wearable motion capture systems based on MEMS IMUs are considered a promising technology that evolves rapidly over the last few years. In this paper we present a wearable pointing solution developed with a pair of inertia sensors equipped with Bluetooth connectivity. Each IMU consists of acceleration and angular velocity sensors and the pair is mounted on the user’s arm. Our system can be used for pointing on screen by capturing the arm’s rotational movement. We present the system’s functionality and a training method for estimating the screen’s distance and relative position. Experimental results show promising pointing accuracy and precision in a variety of different display sizes and distances making our system an effective solution for on-screen pointing.
