Autocalibration Method of Three-axis Micromachined Accelerometers

3축 MEMS 가속도 센서의 이득 및 오프셋 자동 교정법

This paper deals with a novel autocalibration method of three-axis micromachined accelerometers applied to a new intelligent putter for golfers. This putter can help golfers monitor and analyze their putting posture and therefore modify their putting action to get better score and enjoy their lives through golf. The micromachined accelerometers to get information of the motion are the essential part of the putter to measure the three-axis acceleration as accurately as possible. This paper presents autocalibration algorithm to find the offset and sensitivity of accelerometers only by using six different static measurement data. The experimental results shows the validity of the algorithm for the new smart putter.
