  • This shows an example of short-term position tracking with a 9 degrees-of-freedom (dof) inertial measurement unit (IMU) that includes triaxial accelerometers, gyroscopes, and magnetometers made by APDM, Inc. The algorithm includes orientation tracking, which is sometimes called an attitude and heading reference system (AHRS). This is a work in progress and better performance is possible with further improvements in the tracking algorithm and calibration.

    Yes. The accuracy is primarily limited by the duration between static locations. It is not limited by the velocity of the movement. BTW, an updated video and more details and the algorithm design are at forum.apdm.com.

    Hi James, I am working on something similar which involves position tracking using the IMU. I was able to determine orientation but I'm having trouble determining displacement. Your result looks very good to me, may I ask what type of algorithm you used to determine displacement?

    What would be the most appropriate method for calculating the position of an object using linear acceleration data from a BNO055 sensor, given the potential presence of noise and errors in the data? Additionally, what techniques or methods can be employed to mitigate these issues and improve the accuracy of the position calculation?

      I am in the same boat right now for my hovercraft project. Need to estimate position from bno055 and a lidar, I am estimating Vz nicely using an EKF with static gain matrix but I am getting some steady state error that builds up.

    Most of the discussion about this has moved to community-dot-apdm-dot-com-slash-forums. I'm happy to take questions there. (Short answer: no, it's not Kalman-filter based).

    @lemiant The tracking was actually done at 128 Hz, the sample rate of the devices. Your comment suggests the frame rate of the video was 15 fps, but it was 30 fps when I uploaded it to UA-cam. The conversion from 128 Hz to 30 fps was performed simply by taking the orientation estimate that was closest in time to the each of the video frames.

    Sorry for the confusion. I meant, would the tracking be as accurate if the imu was moving at higher speeds, such as 15 feet per second.

    Would using this implementation at higher speeds say 15fps affect its performance.

    Nice demo!
    It seems the sensor has some drift. Are you using any filter such as Kalman?

    Now, i have project is use IMU sensor to measure UAV Velocity and displacement.
    Can you teach me how to write program. thank you so much.

      can we use IMU for positional tracking
      AFTER MOVING THE IMU TO CERTAIN DISTANCE IT RETURNS TO THE ORIGINAL POSITION.
      CAN ANYONE HELP ME WITH THIS?

      @@jram8961 I have the same problem. I call this problem is 'kick back'.you can track velocity and position waveform and you might be found that when acceleration equal 0, the velocity has some seconds delay, then equal to zero. I think that is why the position will kick back to the original position. I set a motion detection to set velocity to 0 when acceleration. Some times it works well, but not always. if you have other solutions please let me know.
