  • Re: accelerometer gravity correction/ King & Mital

    Dr. Berme:

    The work by Dr. King and his student N.K. Mital is described in ...

    Mital, N. K. and A.I. King "Computation of Rigid-Body Rotation in
    Three-Dimensional Space From Body-Fixed Linear Acceleration Measurements."
    Proceedings of the Winter Annual Meeting of the American Society of
    Mechanical Engineers, Bioengineering Division, December 10-15, 1978,
    San Francisco, CA. Paper 78-WA/Bio-5

    I believe the paper can also be found in the Transactions of the ASME,
    in the ASME Journal of Biomechanical Engineering.
