dataset contains over 30 participants, over 300 walking sessions, and more than 30 hours and 100 km of aggregate device trajectories, with each device individually tracked by motion capture. To enable collaboration across distinct body motions, we train role-specific estimators to predict the displacement of a common reference device over synchronized temporal windows. Their predictions are transformed to the world f

rame using gyroscope integration and fused according to learned uncertainty. Experiments using phone, glasses, and watch as reference targets show that multi-device fusion consistently improves both displacement and trajectory rollout accuracy over individual-device estimation. CoWear provides a dataset and reproducible baseline for studying collaborative inertial localization across heterogeneous consumer wearables.
