Enhanced 6D measurement by integrating an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) with a 6D sensor unit of a laser tracker [PDF]

Optics and Lasers in Engineering, 2020
Abstract Six-degree-of-freedom (6D) sensors enhance the measurement capability of traditional three-degree-of-freedom (3D) laser trackers. However, the classical 6D measurement techniques still have shortcomings in actual use, such as the problem of line of sight and relatively low data acquisition rate.
