  • 2. Institute of Computer Science, Foundation for Research and Technology-Hellas

Description

The dataset is collected from 15 participants wearing 5 Shimmer wearable sensor nodes on the locations listed in Table 1. The participants performed a series of 16 activities (7 basic and 9 postural transitions), listed in Table 2.

The captured signals are the following:

  • 3-axis accelerometer
  • 3-axis gyroscope
  • 3-axis magnetometer

The sampling rate of the devices is set to 51.2 Hz.

DATASET FILES

The dataset contains the following files:

  • partX/partXdev1.csv
  • partX/partXdev2.csv
  • partX/partXdev3.csv
  • partX/partXdev4.csv
  • partX/partXdev5.csv

Where X corresponds to the participant ID, and numbers 1-5 to the device IDs indicated in Table 1.

Each .csv file has the following format:

  • Column1: Device ID
  • Column2: accelerometer x
  • Column3: accelerometer y
  • Column4: accelerometer z
  • Column5: gyroscope x
  • Column6: gyroscope y
  • Column7: gyroscope z
  • Column8: magnetometer x
  • Column9: magnetometer y
  • Column10: magnetometer z
  • Column11: Timestamp
  • Column12: Activity Label
