Inertial sensors are widely used in a variety of applications. A common task is orientation estimation. To tackle such a task, attitude and heading reference system algorithms are applied. Relying on the gyroscope readings, the accelerometer measurements are used to update the attitude angles, and magnetometer measurements are utilized to update the heading angle. In indoor environments, magnetometers suffer from interference that degrades their performance.

We collect IMU measurements under three different patterns: Fixing a smartphone in front of his chest (chest), swing a smartphone while holding it in his hand (swing), and putting a smartphone in his pocket (pocket). We use Google Pixel 3XL for the pattern of chest and Google Pixel 3a for the patterns of swing and pocket. The sampling frequency of each measurement is fixed to 15Hz. We collect the measurement of 111 paths in total, categorized into 4 types. We partition them into 84 and 27 paths, used for training and testing, respectively. It takes 10 hours to collect all datasets.
