  • Abstract
    This work presents a novel wireless and low power Attitude and Heading Reference Systems network based on low-cost MEMS (Micro Electro-Mechanical System) sensors, developed for motion tracking systems. Biomedical and rehabilitation purposes as well as gaming and consumer electronics may be the potential applications of this network. The paper aims to describe the hardware architecture, the embedded sensor fusion algorithm and the motion tracking system.
