Simulation aided design of a human wrist rotation recognition system combining IMU sensor data with Visible Light Communication

Wrist worn mobile sensors have proven to be applicable for various applications, including fitness tracking or gesture recognition. In time- and security-critical application scenarios, the commonly used Radio frequency based communication technologies may pose a bottleneck for further advancements. In this work, we present a simulation environment implemented in Matlab/Simulink that enables the precise simulation of wristbands that are equipped with light emitting diodes, which take over the task of data transfer by means of visible light communication in a fast and secure way.
