What is Inertial measurement units linked with?

2

Studies link Inertial measurement units with 2 measures, most often sarcopenia (1 study) and depth camera (1).

Sarcopenia

upin humans1

1 study
  1. Inertial measurement units predict sarcopenia in humans.

    “IMUs demonstrated potential as effective tools for detecting sarcopenia when coupled with artificial intelligence (AI) models, which outperformed traditional statistical methods in classification accuracy.”
