摘要

apparatus for determining movement to determine the movement of a moving object, method for determining movement for determining the movement of a moving object and a computer program for determining the movement of a moving object the invention relates to an apparatus for determining motion movement to determine the movement of a moving object, in which the apparatus for determining movement (1) comprises a multi-axial accelerometer (2) to be positioned on the moving object (4), in which the multi-axial accelerometer (2 ) is adapted to generate accelerometer signals indicative of acceleration along different spatial axes. the motion determination apparatus also comprises a motion signal generating unit (3) for generating a motion signal indicative of the object's movement (4) by combining accelerometer signals from different spatial axes. the combination of accelerometer signals from different spatial axes results in a motion signal that has a large signal to noise ratio, even if an axis is located near an axis of rotation of the movement.
