Abstract
This paper describes a motion capturing system for human arm motion in real time; directly, simply and precisely by integrating two types of sensor; gyroscopes and accelerometers. A new sensor fusion technique is proposed which enlarges the merits of each sensor and compensates for their deficiencies. Its potential precision has been verified by experiment and simulation
