Assessing the influence of sensitivity and frequency on the performance of the Midge

The Midge is a wearable badge created by the Socially Perceptive Computing Lab, Pattern Recognition and Bioinformatics group of the Delft University of Technology, with as goal to analyse human behaviour. The badge has a digital motion processor (DMP) that can determine its orientation. This DMP makes use of an inertial measurement unit (IMU),...

A rotation experiment on the Digital Motion Processor of the Midge

This thesis has researched how the Midge compares to a modern mobile phone regarding the accuracy and reliability of the rotation vector from the DMP in both devices. The rotation of the main axis of the Midge accurately matches that of the modern mobile phone, which means that the accuracy and reliability of the rotation vector from the DMP of...
