Abstract: A method of tracking 3D position and orientation of an entity in a moving platform is described. The method comprises receiving data sensed by an inertial measurement unit mounted on the entity. Visual tracking data is also received, computed from images depicting the moving platform or the entity in the moving platform. The method computes the 3D position and orientation of the entity by estimating a plurality of states using the visual tracking data and the data sensed by the inertial measurement unit, where the states comprise both states of the moving platform and states of the entity.

Abstract: A wearable computing device, including a device body configured to be affixed to a body of a user. The wearable computing device may further include an inertial measurement unit (IMU) and a processor. The processor may receive kinematic data from the IMU while the device body is affixed to the body of the user. The processor may perform a first coordinate transformation on the kinematic data into a training coordinate frame of a training wearable computing device. At a first machine learning model trained using training data including training kinematic data collected at the training wearable computing device, the processor may compute a training-frame velocity estimate for the wearable computing device based on the transformed kinematic data. The processor may perform a second coordinate transformation on the training-frame velocity estimate to obtain a runtime-frame velocity estimate and may output the runtime-frame velocity estimate to a target program.
