How to fuse linear and angular data from sensors?
My team and I are setting up an outdoor robot that has encoders, a commercial-grade IMU, and GPS sensor. The robot has a basic tank drive, so the encoders sufficiently supply ticks from the left and ...

Angle Random Walk vs. Rate Noise Density (MPU6050)
I’ve made a datalog from a MPU6050 (IMU: gyroscope and accelerometer) at 500Hz sample rate. Now I want to calculate the characteristics from the gyro to evaluate the sensor.
For the gyro I’ve found ...

How to localise a underwater robot?
I am building an autonomous underwater robot. It will be used in swimming pools. It should be capable of running in any normal sized pool, not just the pool in which I test. So I cannot rely on a ...

Open source implementations for GPS+IMU sensor fusion?
Are there any Open source implementations of GPS+IMU sensor fusion (loosely coupled; i.e. using GPS module output and 9 degree of freedom IMU sensors)? -- kalman filtering based or otherwise.
I did ...

information filter instead of kalman filter approach
I read many sources about kalman filter, yet no about the other approach to filtering, where canonical parametrization instead of moments parametrization is used.
What is the difference?
Other ...

object level sensor fusion for multiobject tracking
I want to fuse objects coming from several sensors, with different (sometimes overlapping!) fields of view. Having object lists, how can I determine whether some objects observed by different sensors ...

Quadcopter Position Measurement (Accelerometer, GPS or Both)?
I previously thought that an accelerometer on a quadcopter is used to find the position by integrating the data got from it. After I read a lot and watched this Youtube video (specifically at time 23:...

How do timings affect input, sensor fusion, and output?
I'm programming a quadcopter controller. I've managed to make it fly. But, I'm not sure how to set up the timings schedule for each part of the software.
I have several sensors (gyro, accelerometer, ...

Are there off the shelf solutions for GPS+INS (accelerometer,gyro,magneto) sensor fusion for getting filtered/fused location and speed output?
I am working on a project that needs tracking location and speed of pedestrians/runners/athletes (so not really robotics, but I see a lot of related usage and posts in the robotics domain, and an ...

P gain tuning for quadcopter (Is my perception for a P-gain too high correct?)
Good day,
I am currently working on a project using Complementary filter for Sensor fusion and PID algorithm for motor control. I viewed a lot of videos in youtube as well as consulted various blogs ...
