ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT:
This seminar will focus on how raw readings from Inertial Measurement Units - IMU are calibrated so that the readings are interpretable in the device in which it is placed. Calibration technique for an accelerometer and gyroscope are both defined and experiential values will show its results. Further for altitude sensing the calibrated values from the IMU sensors are processed in a Kalman filter which help to estimate the attitude more precisely compared to what each of the individual sensors would give.
