Telescope pointing based on inertial measurement unit [PDF]
In this paper we study the problem of how to determine the coordinates of a point a telescope is directed to on the basis of data obtained from a 9DOF sensor board.

An Inertial Measurement Unit [PDF]
In this chapter, we’ll examine another device I used in my autonomous rover – an inertial measurement unit (IMU). An IMU is present in many mobile robotics projects, as it helps determine the robot’s orientation as it travels from one point to another.

Multiple Inertial Measurement Units–An Empirical Study [PDF]
An inertial navigation system is commonly used in various marine platforms above and below the sea surface to calculate the position, velocity and orientation of its carrier platform. Such systems contain an inertial measurement unit (IMU) to measure the specific force and angular velocity which in turn are integrated to obtain the navigation state ...

Ship motion measurement using an inertial measurement unit [PDF]
Traditional methods of measuring a vessel's motion involve the use of bulky sensor units which usually require cables. These devices are not only expensive, but are difficult and time-consuming to install. They are simply not affordable and do not provide owners of vessels with a cost effective way of measuring and monitoring their vessels' motion ...

Posture algorithm for mobile robot based on ultrawide band
Inertial measurement unit or other navigation devices are used to obtain the posture information of most mobile robots based on ultrawide band. However, problems, such as zero drift, temperature drift, and error increasing with time, exist in inertial ...
