Localization of human hand by using inertial sensors

In this research, we propose a method to localize human hand position. In order to provide many types of services for human in the Intelligent Space, human observation is needed. Many applications, such as Spatial Memory, use human hand position for the indicator and to get hand position, the ultrasound localization system is used. When transceiver inclines, the accuracy decreases. To extend the function of spatial memory to iSpace simulator, the new hand localization is needed. In this paper, we will describe the human hand localization system by using inertial sensors and also the evaluation by the ultrasonic system.
