Evaluation of Pattern Recognition Methods for Head Gesture-Based Interface of a Virtual Reality Helmet Equipped with a Single IMU Sensor

Sensors (Basel). 2019 Dec 8;19(24):5408. doi: 10.3390/s19245408.

Abstract

The motivation of this paper is to examine the effectiveness of state-of-the-art and newly proposed motion capture pattern recognition methods in the task of head gesture classifications. The head gestures are designed for a user interface that utilizes a virtual reality helmet equipped with an.
