Description

Technical Field [0001] The present invention relates to a sensor error compensating apparatus using a joint sensor,

The present invention relates to a sensor error correction device using a joint sensor, a correction method, and a training system to which such an error correction device is applied.

Inertial Navigation System (INS) is a system that can determine the position, speed and posture of a moving object or a moving object in a reference navigation coordinate system without external assistance by using the inertial physical quantity measured by two basic sensors of gyro and accelerometer The accuracy and error of the system are affected by various factors.

At this time, the cause of the error can largely be divided into a hardware aspect and a software aspect.

First of all, the hardware aspect is mainly caused by the inherent sensor error such as the bias or misalignment error of the inertial measurement device. In addition, the noise included in the measurement of the sensor signal or the A / D converter Quantization error, and non-aligned mounting when mounting an inertial measurement device on a moving object.

 Secondly, as a software aspect, numerical calculation errors are largely classified into initial alignment errors, self - calculation errors, and integration errors. These error factors are accumulated in time when hardware error factors are not properly removed, Thereby increasing a large error in performance. Therefore, it is important to reduce the numerical error in software. However, it is important to reduce and eliminate the hardware error as much as possible. In particular, it is necessary to eliminate the sensor error generated in the inertial measurement device itself.

 In particular, a gimbal type inertial navigation system (Gimballed) is used to mount an inertial sensor such as a gyro and an accelerometer on a stabilized platform and to determine the current position, attitude, and speed using an inertial measurement amount such as angular velocity and acceleration from the inertial sensor. (Strapdown INS), which is a mechanical device instead of a mechanical device, is dependent on the motion of an aircraft, and therefore, inertia measurement The device must consider the inertia measurement device error for the gyro effect before it is applied to the inertial navigation system.

In order to eliminate the error of the inertial measurement device itself, an error model is established through an error modeling process, and an error correction test is performed to estimate the respective error coefficients constituting the error model .

In order to perform the error correction test, a device capable of generating three-axis rotational motion and three-axis linear motion is required. Of course, a 3-axis motion table that has three degrees of freedom and can provide a constant angular velocity and precise attitude for each axis is used in the error correction test of the inertial measurement device.

In recent years, there exists a system for detecting movements and movements in real time by attaching an acceleration sensor and an angular velocity sensor to a human body to measure movement distance and angle of an angle of an arm or a leg in real time.

However, an angular velocity sensor such as a gyro sensor is practically error-free, and drift occurs over time, making it difficult to obtain reliable information. Therefore, there is a problem that an angle value measured in real time must be calibrated.

Therefore, there is a need for a technique capable of correcting other angular velocity sensors and acceleration sensors based on the measured values of the joint sensors.

As shown in FIG. 8, the sensor unit 32 may include a first heat sensor unit 33-1 and a second heat sensor unit 33-2. The first thermal sensor unit 33-1 is for measuring the joint angle in the first direction and the second thermal sensor unit 33-2 is for measuring the joint angle in the second direction. Therefore, according to another embodiment of the present invention, it is possible to calculate the joint angle with respect to the multi-axis direction.

According to the embodiment of the present invention, in order to measure the position (trajectory) of the arm tip (wrist) portion, the aforementioned first inertial sensor unit 10 includes a triaxial single gyro sensor, a second inertial sensor unit 20 Can be applied to the upper arm 2 and the 3-fiducial two-gyro sensor 20 can be attached to the lower arm 3 by using a 3-fiducial 2-gyro sensor. According to another embodiment, the three-focal one-gyro sensor 10 can be attached to the upper leg 2, and the three-focal two-gyro sensor 20 can be attached to the lower leg 3.

9A is a side view showing the first gyro sensor 10 attached to the upper arm 2, the second gyro sensor 20 attached to the lower arm 3 and the joint sensor 30 attached to the elbow 4 according to the embodiment of the present invention. The state of the arm in the state of being. 9B shows a leg provided with a first gyro sensor 10 on the upper leg 2, a second gyro sensor 20 on the lower leg 3 and a joint sensor 30 on the knee 4 .

If the values of the gyro sensors 10 and 20 are theoretically accurate, the position of the wrist can be calculated on the assumption that the arm length is known.

However, in reality, the gyro sensors 10 and 20 have large errors and drift over time, making it difficult to obtain reliable information. Therefore, there arises a problem that the angular values emitted from the first and second gyro sensors 10 and 20 must be calibrated in real time. For this purpose, there is a method of imposing a contraint on the angle value.

In the case of the arm, when the upper arm and the lower arm are constrained to meet each other at the elbow portion, the value of the second gyro sensor 20 in the lower arm based on the value of the first gyro sensor 10 in the upper arm Correcting through the corrector 40 to satisfy a constraint allows a more accurate wrist position portion to be calculated.

By adding the actual angle of the elbow to the constraint, the angular value of the second gyro sensor 20 mounted on the lower arm can be calculated more accurately. Here, the actual angle of the elbow can be measured through the joint sensor 30.

The angle of the upper arm 2 is measured in real time by the first gyro sensor 10 and the angle of the lower arm 3 is measured by the second gyro sensor 20 in real time. The joint angle is measured in real time (S2). Then, based on these measured values, motion data is analyzed by calculating the position and trajectory of the wrist (S3).

When the gyro sensor needs to be calibrated (S4), the corrector 40 calculates the joint angle based on the value measured by the first gyro sensor 10 and the value measured by the second gyro sensor 20, At least one of the first gyro sensor 10 and the second gyro sensor 20 is corrected by comparing the measured value with the joint sensor 30. [ That is, the first gyro sensor 10 or the second gyro sensor 20 is corrected based on the third measurement value, which is the joint angle measured by the joint sensor 30, through the relationship of Equation (2).

That is, when the second gyro sensor 20 is to be corrected, the first gyro sensor 10 is first determined by the previously disclosed method (S5). For example, while the shoulder is fixed, the value measured by the first gyro sensor 10 and the actual angle value, for example, the value stored in the database 50, are calculated while slowly changing the angle of the upper arm 2 with respect to the shoulder. 1 standard angle data and the value measured by the first gyro sensor 10, the first gyro sensor 10 is corrected.

Then, the second gyro sensor 20 is calibrated based on the value measured by the first gyro sensor 10 and the value measured by the joint sensor 30 (S6).

After the correction is completed, if the analysis of the motion data is continuously required (S7), the motion data analysis is continued through the values measured by the first gyro sensor 10, the second gyro sensor 20 and the joint sensor 30 .
