Upper-body movements: precise tracking of human motion using inertial sensors

The <em>Upper-body movements: precise tracking of human motion using inertial sensors</em> is a dataset composed of 11 participants' IMU data (5 women + 6 men). This collection is divided into 6 motion sets containing different motions for the upper-body. <strong>Folder Structure</strong> subject -&gt; set -&gt; IMU position -&gt; file e.g. subject01 -&gt; set6 -&gt; forearm -&gt; Accelerometer.txt <strong>IMU placement </strong> For data collection participants wore 4 IMUs: 1 on the chest 1 on the right arm 1 on the right forearm 1 on the right hand. <strong>Sets</strong> Each set includes: set1 - flexion/extension of the forearm; abduction/adduction of the arm; anatomical position set2 - flexion/extension of the wrist; radial/ulnar deviation of the wrist; anatomical position set3 - flexion/extension and lateral flexion of the torso; anatomical position set4 - flexion/extension of the arm; flexion/extension of the torso; anatomical position set5 - flexion/extension of the arm; anatomical position; anatomical position set6 - flexion/extension of the torso; flexion/extension of the arm; anatomical position <strong>Annotations</strong> This dataset is accompanied by the<em> annotations.csv</em> file.<br> Each file row present "Set,Subject,Category,Segment,Type,Init,End": Set - sets 1-6 Subject - participant ID Category - relative or absolute. Refers to the joint angle. Absolute if the angle is obtained considering an anatomical plane as reference. Relative if the angle is obtained from one segment in relation to another. Type - segment at action (torso; right_arm_forearm; wrist; right_arm_sagittal) Init/End - time in seconds, describing the begin and end of the motion, respectively.
