Sensor fusion notes

  • Accelerometers and Gyroscopes - Sensor Fusion #1 - Phil's Lab #33

         ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZd6XDx5VXo&t=0s ) 


  • why sensor fusion 
    • overcome the limitation of the single sensor
    • indirect measurement 
    • eg. altitude measurement 
  • aircraft altitude measurement
    • roll, pitch, yaw
    • 3d accelerometer 
    • 3d gyroscope

    •      Euler measurement, spherical coordinates
    • measure all acceleration along each body axis 
      • a = [ax , ay , az]
        • m/s^2
    • Accelerometer model


       in idle scenario 

     
  • the angle can be found from the linear measurement of acceleration
