    Awesome and so much underrated video. I saw your video about Magnetometer calibration, which was already exactly what I needed. Some time later, I had the random idea of throwing magneto on the accelerometer reading too, just like you did. Same day I found out you did just the same. Keep going, I'm sure your Chanel will get the reputation it deserves

    This could be a game changer for me. I have written my own genetic algorithm to do essentially what Magneto seems to be doing. Will be great to compare my results to what Magneto gives for a little extra validation.

    The content in this video is very informative. One thing I think is missing though is information on exactly how the magneto calibration coeffecients are used to correct the measurements from the accelerometer. This information would be extremely helpful.

    Since the link for magneto doesn't work, how would you go about calculating that 3x3 Scale-Factor & Non-Orthogonality Corrections matrix? Is there a proper name for this sort of matrix (i.e., is it a rotation matrix?

    As you've done here, initializing at rest to 1g, is that value corrected to zero or is it offset in your program by minus 1g?

    is there an exe file for Magneto program somewhere? Download link seems to be dead
    ...got magneto 1.2 from link from comments.
    Just wondering, for Arduino (Nano 33 BLE), what is best filter to use? There is library for Madgwick filter, but wondering if there is any filter that can do a bit better then this one...
    Also, just wondering what to use to calculate X, Y and Z position vs 0, 0, 0 (starting position), for full head tracking with movement?
    Cheers...

      @LarsHolstHansen Рік тому

      1g (or -1g) is expected for an axis percticly alligned with the gravitational force when the sensor is at rest.

    Hi, is it important to go along each axis as you do, or can i also use positions in random directions?

    • @VictorYarema
      @VictorYarema Рік тому

      Any direction would work. This way though you get pretty uniform distribution of data values almost all over the surface. I don't want to get into details, but it is worth mentioning that some way more precise accelerometers it is probably good to get data on those ellipsoid surfaces as well. I assume this would be a waste of time for this specific cheap (my assumption again) device.

    Hi to everybody!
    I'm trying to solve this problem with an IMU mounted in an autonomous vehicle.
    How can I calibrate the sensor in this case, that is fixed on the vehicle's chassis?
    I know that the bias vary also with the temperature and I want to write a procedure to recompute the acceleration bias every time the car stopped during its motion;
    I think that also this is a well know problem.
    I can change a little bit the roll and pitch of the car driving in a multi-level car park, but is it enough with the proposed model?
    I don't use directly my EKF filter to estimate the bias.
    I tried to use a very similar model:
    acc_body = R(roll)R(pitch)R(yaw)G_i eq. 1
    where
    acc_body = (true_acc + bias + noise)
    G_i = [0, 0, 9.81]^t is the gravity vector described respect to my inertial reference frame
    R(..) = is the rotation matrix to rotate a vector around a reference axis
    My inertial reference frame is FLU (Front, Left, Up).
    but even if the vehicle is not moving, I don't know exactly how the gravity vector is redistributed on the three body frame axes,
    even if the ground is perfectly flat because I do not know the attitude or the amount of bias.
    Does someone have any suggestions or articles to read?
    Thanks
    Ale
