Abstract

The aim of this thesis is to design, construct and implement a custom inertial motion capture system. Though multiple techniques have been studied, the primary focus is placed on inertial motion capture itself - its merits and demerits, key properties and components necessary for construction of an inertial-based system. The preliminary information-gathering is followed by the design, implementation and evaluation phases, which deal with presenting the process of developing and testing the solution. The main contribution of the system implementation is the construction of hardware motion capture devices, i.e., small, lightweight, battery-powered wearable bands, which are completely wireless - both in terms of communication with the outside world as well as in their Qi-compliant charging capabilities.

Keywords

inertial motion capture, inertial measurement units, MPU-6050, microcontroller, ESP32, wireless sensor network, MQTT, ESP-NOW, wireless charging
