Introduction
Xsens DOT is a wearable sensor development platform features sensor incorporating 3D
accelerometers, gyroscopes and magnetometers to provide an accurate 3D orientation.
The embedded processor in the sensor handles sampling, calibration, strap-down
integration of inertial data and Xsens Kalman Filter core (XKFCore) algorithm for sensor
fusion. With wireless data transmission through Bluetooth 5.0, Xsens DOT can provide real-
time 3D orientation as well as calibrated 3D linear acceleration, angular velocity and (earth)
magnetic field data to a receiving device.
Xsens DOT is the start of a new Xsens product line bringing Xsens sensor solution to mobile
device platform. With simple-to-use SDK and comprehensive documentation, system
integrators can easily develop their wearable applications.
The Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) data transmission, lightweight form factor and IP68 rating
widen the application areas of Xsens DOT, making it easy and durable to use in various
scenarios. Using different combinations of 5 sensors,
it’s
flexible to apply Xsens DOT to
customized measurement cases.
Fields of use:
1.
Health and rehabilitation
2.
Sports and exercise science
3.
Ergonomics
