    "body_text": "A phone, watch and glasses observe the same walk from different moving reference points. CoWear collects device-specific motion-capture ground truth for more than 30 participants, 300 sessions, 30 hours and 100 aggregate kilometers. Separate estimators predict displacement for a shared reference; gyroscope integration rotates those estimates into the world frame before uncertainty-weighted fusion. Across phone-, watch- and glasses-centered tests, the authors report consistent gains over individual devices. The dataset is a research baseline, not a consumer tracking product or safety claim.",
