Per the article, there is nothing special about the IMU they're using. What's novel here is the use of a foot-mounted pressure sensor and inverse kinematics to correct for accelerometer noise.
- Isamu 9y agoAgreed, but to clarify my comment, an IMU is not an inertial navigation system. I'm saying they constructed a pretty accurate inertial navigation system. The paper I cited helps to point out the difference between taking inertial measurements and putting together a reasonable navigation system.
