A Particle Filter Localisation System for Indoor Track Cycling Using an Intrinsic Coordinate Model

摘要

In this paper we address the challenging task of tracking a fast-moving bicycle, in the indoor velodrome environment, using inertial sensors and infrequent position measurements. Since the inertial sensors are physically in the intrinsic frame of the bike, we adopt an intrinsic frame dynamic model for the motion, based on curvilinear dynamical models for manoeuvring objects. We show that the combination of inertial measurements with the intrinsic dynamic model leads to linear equations, which may be incorporated effectively into particle filtering schemes. Position measurements are provided through timing measurements on the track from a camera-based system and these are fused with the inertial measurements using a particle filter weighting scheme. The proposed methods are evaluated on synthesised cycling datasets based on real motion trajectories, showing their potential accuracy, and then real data experiments are reported.
