SensHAR
wrist-worn IMU (accel/gyro) for six-activity HAR (ESP32-S3 + QMI8658A, n=30)
Wrist-worn six-axis IMU dataset tied to the SensHAR human-in-the-loop HAR framework (Soumyajit Basak; created 2026-10-14). Custom ESP32-S3 wristband with QMI8658A IMU at 20 Hz; right-wrist accel + gyro; six labeled activities (walk, run, sit, stand, stair down/up). Study n=30 (20 generalized / 10 personalization); archive ships Combined20right.csv + S1right.csv…S10right.csv (~13.85 MB zip).

Original description
"SensHAR is a wrist-worn inertial-sensing dataset associated with the SensHAR human-in-the-loop wearable framework for human activity recognition. The accompanying data archive contains one combined file named Combined_20_right.csv and ten participant-named files, S1_right.csv through S10_right.csv. The records include right-wrist accelerometer and gyroscope measurements, timestamp-related fields, and activity-label fields; some participant files also contain device or inference metadata. The SensHAR study describes data collection from 30 participants performing six activities2014walking, running, sitting, standing, stair descent, and stair ascent2014using a custom ESP32-S3 wristband with a QMI8658A six-axis IMU sampled at 20 Hz. In the manuscript's evaluation protocol, 20 participants provide source data for generalized model development and ten participants are held out for target-user personalization. The archive should be used only after consulting the README for its file-specific schemas and label conventions. The CSV files in the current upload do not have a uniform schema or an evident common label mapping; users should not assume that all numeric labels correspond directly to the six classes reported in the manuscript. This dataset is intended to support research on wearable inertial sensing and human activity recognition, subject to the documented limitations and verification notes."
