This paper presents a novel, low-cost proprioceptive sensing solution for legged robots with point feet to achieve accurate low-drift long-term position and velocity estimation. In addition to conventional sensors, including one body Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) and joint encoders, we attach an additional IMU to each calf link of the robot just above the foot. An extended Kalman filter is used to fuse data from all sensors to estimate the robot's body and foot positions in the world frame. Using the additional IMUs, the filter is able to reliably determine foot contact modes and detect foot slips without tactile or pressure-based foot contact sensors. This sensing solution is validated in various hardware experiments, which confirm that it can reduce position drift by nearly an order of magnitude compared to conventional approaches with only a very modest increase in hardware and computational costs.

Currently, there is no affordable, everyday use chiropractic force sensor. Devices that are used to teach chiropractic students, such as activators and drop tables, assist students in learning but do not give adequate feedback. Our design will be implementing the cheapest materials to make the most reliable force sensing glove which chiropractors can use for their daily work needs. Materials needed to complete this project include pressure sensors, electrical wires, resistors, a breadboard, Raspberry Pi Pico W, a laptop with Thonny software installed, and an analog to digital converter. Our design of the chiropractic force sensor glove will help reduce the amount of confusion when determining the correct amount of force to apply to a chiropractor’s patient. This research will also help to dramatically reduce any severe pain resulting from misplaced forces and pressure applied to chiropractic patients.
