WaviTrack

Exploiting body-area RF channels for wearable human motion reconstruction

WaviTrack combines ultra-wideband radio measurements and inertial sensing to reconstruct human motion from body-worn nodes. The project includes an open hardware platform, motion-reconstruction methods, and a research dataset.

System overview

Body-worn nodes record UWB ranging, radio channel, and IMU measurements. The radio observations help estimate body geometry, and are combined with inertial cues for motion reconstruction.
