Abstract EN

This study proposes a method for using a three-axis accelerometer and a single-chip microcontrol unit to implement a three-dimensional (3D) pedometer that can automatically identify walking and running motions.

The proposed design can calculate the number of walking and running steps down to small numbers of steps and can be easily worn, thus remedying defects of generic mechanical and 3D pedometers.

The user’s motion state is calculated using a walk/run mode switching algorithm.
