Abstract

A novel experimental setup using accelerometer and gyroscope sensors embedded on a single board along with a distance-based pattern recognition algorithm is presented for accurately identifying basic movements for possible application in gaming using a mobile platform. As an example, the authors considered some basic step sequences in the popular dance game e.g., dance dance revolution, and could detect these movements with a reasonably high probability. They envision that the experimental results presented in this paper will motivate future research in the world of mobile gaming applications using advanced smart phones with a dual module design.
