What is IMU sensor fusion?
IMU and GPS sensor fusion to determine orientation and position. Use inertial sensor fusion algorithms to estimate orientation and position over time. The algorithms are optimized for different sensor configurations, output requirements, and motion constraints.
What sensors are in an IMU?
An IMU is a specific type of sensor that measures angular rate, force and sometimes magnetic field. IMUs are composed of a 3-axis accelerometer and a 3-axis gyroscope, which would be considered a 6 axis IMU. They can also include an additional 3-axis magnetometer, which would be considered a 9 axis IMU.
What is IMU in GPS?
IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) device is an INS device, which has a built-in three-axial accelerometer and gyroscope. An additional magnetometer can be added to provide the right heading on the Earth.
