Magnetic motion sensing enables non-contact tracking of relative position and orientation in 3D space. With recent advances in sensor and actuator devices, applications in human movement analysis seem feasible. However, establishing a setup from scratch in terms of hardware and software is challenging. Therefore, we introduce a comprehensive simulation pipeline based on a digital twin concept that enables the design and validation of new approaches based on kinematics, magnetics, and digital real-time signal processing. We also elaborate on related applications.
