## What it is
MATLAB source code for a foot-mounted IMU gait tracking algorithm that estimates position via dead reckoning, with drift corrected at each foot strike. It was demonstrated with the x-IMU sensor and has been superseded by the newer Gait-Tracking repository.

## Use cases
- track foot position using an IMU sensor
- implement zero-velocity update gait tracking
- reproduce the Madgwick 3D tracking with IMU demo
- visualize foot motion in MATLAB animations
- study dead reckoning drift correction for pedestrian navigation

## When to choose
- you need a reference implementation of foot-mounted IMU dead reckoning
- you are working in MATLAB with x-IMU hardware
- you want to study the classic 2011 gait tracking algorithm

## When to avoid
- you need a maintained or supported project
- you want the latest x-io gait tracking code (use Gait-Tracking instead)
- you need a non-MATLAB implementation

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: abandoned
- function: simulation, machine-learning
- domain: robotics
- platform: python
- tags: imu, gait-tracking, dead-reckoning, matlab, motion-tracking, algorithms
