Multi Inertial Measurement Units (MIMU) Platforms: Designs & Applicationsoblu.io
There are typically three categories of multi-sensor systems. First, classical sensors system with different types of collocated sensors, e.g. a positioning system making use of a collocated inertial sensor, a pressure sensor and a GPS. Second, sensor joint systems wherein multiple same type of sensors coordinate to predict state of a system, e.g. estimating motion of a robotic or a human arm using multiple sensors attached to different positions, for capturing a versatile motion. The third kind of multi sensors system consists of collocated sensors with the same properties. The redundancy due to multiple sensors, results not only in enhanced noise performance of the system, but also allows the multi sensor system to achieve what single sensor system can not, e.g. a two dimensional array of accelerometers on a rigid circuit board can produce rotational information. On the one hand enhancing capabilities, shrinking size and reducing cost of MEMS sensors favor redundancy, but on the other hand data communication, processing and calibration compensation pose system level challenges.
The talk focused on technical merits of such multi-sensor systems. Talk covered the architecture of massive multi-IMU arrays with up to 288 measurement channels at 1 kHz, the engineering challenges associated with them including the requirements on on-node data processing, their merits and some applications.

Evolution of a shoe-mounted multi-IMU pedestrian dead reckoning PDR sensoroblu.io
Shoe-mounted inertial navigation systems, aka pedestrian dead reckoning or PDR sensors, are being preferred for pedestrian navigation because of the accuracy offered by them. Such shoe sensors are, for example, the obvious choice for real time location systems of first responders. The opensource platform OpenShoe has reported application of multiple IMUs in shoe-mounted PDR sensors to enhance noise performance. In this paper, we present an experimental study of the noise performance and the operating clocks based power consumption of multi-IMU platforms. The noise performances of a multi-IMU system with different combinations of IMUs are studied. It is observed that four-IMU system is best optimized for cost, area and power. Experiments with varying operating clocks frequency are performed on an in-house four-IMU shoe-mounted inertial navigation module (the Oblu module). Based on the outcome, power-optimized operating clock frequencies are obtained. Thus the overall study suggests that by selecting a well-designed operating point, a multi-IMU system can be made cost, size and power efficient without practically affecting its superior positioning performance.
This document describes the data processing flow in oblu. It also describes communication protocol using which one can access & control the data, set internal parameters and the processing at various stages, through an external

Abstract - Positioning is a fundamental component of human life to make meaningful interpretations of the environment. Without knowledge of position, human beings are like machines and have very limited capabilities to interact with the environment. Even machines in today’s world can be made smarter if positioning information is made available to them. Indoor positioning of pedestrians is the broad area considered in this thesis. A foot mounted pedestrian tracking device has been studied for this purpose. Systems which utilize foot mounted inertial navigation system has been in the literature for more than two decades. However very few real time implementations have been possible. The purpose of this thesis is to benchmark and improve the performance of one such implementation.
Inertial Sensor Array Calibration Made Easy !oblu.io
Ultra-low-cost single-chip inertial measurement units (IMUs) combined into IMU arrays are opening up new possibilities for inertial sensing. However, to make these systems practical, calibration and misalignment compensation of low-cost IMU arrays are necessary and a simple calibration procedure that aligns the sensitivity axes of the sensors in the array is needed. Team at KTH suggests a novel mechanical-rotation-rig-free calibration procedure based on blind system identification and a platonic solid (Icosahedron) printable by a contemporary 3D-printer. Matlab-scripts for the parameter estimation and production files for the calibration device are made available.
Massive Sensors Array for Precision Sensingoblu.io
More than a billion smartphones being sold annually and growing with CAGR of 16%, the smartphone industry has become a driving force in the development of ultralow-cost inertial sensors. Unfortunately, these ultra low-cost sensors do not yet meet the needs of more demanding applications like inertial navigation and biomedical motion tracking systems. However, by adapting a wisdom of the crowd’s thinking and design arrays consisting of hundreds of sensing elements, one can capitalize on the decreasing cost, size, and power-consumption of the sensors to construct virtual high-performance low-cost inertial sensors. Team at KTH, Sweden and WUSTL, USA share findings and challenges.
Despite being around for almost two decades, footmounted inertial navigation only has gotten a limited spread. Contributing factors to this are lack of suitable hardware platforms and difficult system integration. As a solution to this, we present an open-source wireless foot-mounted inertial navigation module with an intuitive and significantly simplified dead reckoning interface. The interface is motivated from statistical properties of the underlying aided inertial navigation and argued to give negligible information loss. The module consists of both a hardware platform and embedded software. Details of the platform and the software are described, and a summarizing description of how to reproduce the module are given. System integration of the module is outlined and finally, we provide a basic performance assessment of the module. In summary, the module provides a modularization of the foot-mounted inertial navigation and makes the technology significantly easier to use.

An Experimental Study on a Pedestrian Tracking Deviceoblu.io
The implemented navigational algorithm of an inertial

The aim of this study is to demonstrate robust performance of a multiple Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs) based foot-mounted INS, The Osmium MIMU22BTP, under varying operating conditions. The device, which performs zero-velocity-update (ZUPT) aided navigation, is subjected to different conditions which could potentially influence gait of its wearer, its hardware configuration etc. The gait-influencing factors chosen for study are shoe type, walking surface, path profile and walking speed. Besides, the tracking performance of the device is also studied for different number of on-board IMUs and the ambient temperature. The tracking performance of MIMU22BTP is reported for all these factors and benchmarked using identified performance metrics. We observe very robust tracking performance of MIMU22BTP. The average relative errors are less than 3 to 4% under all the conditions, with respect to drift, distance and height, indicating a potential for a variety of location based services based on foot mounted inertial sensing and dead reckoning.

In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.
