• Abstract: MEMS Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs) as ubiquitous proprioceptive motion measurement devices are available on various everyday gadgets and robotic platforms. Nevertheless, the direct inference of geometrical transformations or odometry based on these data alone is a challenging task. This is due to the hard-to-model imperfections and high noise characteristics of the sensor, which has motivated research in formulating the system as an end-to-end learning problem, where the motion patterns of the agent are exploited to facilitate better odometry estimates. However, this benefit comes at the cost of high computation and memory requirements, which makes deep inertial odometry unsuitable for low-power and edge applications. This paper attempts to address this conflict by proposing the IMU preintegrated features as a replacement for the raw IMU data in deep inertial odometry. Exploiting the manifold structure of the IMU motion model, these features provide a temporally compressed motion representation that preserves important geometrical information. We demonstrate the effectiveness and efficiency of this approach for the task of inertial odometry on two applications of pedestrian motion estimation and autonomous vehicles. We show a performance improvement compared to raw inputs while reducing the computational burdens. Additionally, we demonstrate the efficiency of this approach through an embedded implementation on a resource-constrained microcontroller.
