Inertial 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. You can directly fuse IMU data from multiple inertial sensors. You can also fuse IMU data with GPS data.
