WoodmanAbstractUntil recently the weight and size of inertial sensors has prohibited their use in domains such ashuman motion capture. Recent improvements in the performance of small and lightweight micro-machined electromechanical systems (MEMS) inertial sensors havemade the application of inertialtechniques to such problems possible. This has resulted in an increased interest in the topic ofinertial navigation , however current introductions to the subject fail to sufficiently describe the errorcharacteristics of inertial introduce inertial navigation , focusing on strapdown systems based on MEMS devices.
modern gyroscopes (including the optical and MEMS types outlined in Sections 3.1.2 and 3.1.3) are rate-gyros, which measure angular velocity. The main disadvantage of mechanical gyroscopes is that they contain moving parts. Moving parts cause friction, which in turn causes the output to drift over time. To minimise friction high-precision
