1996 Virtual Reality Annual International Symposium (VRAIS 96)
Inertial Head-Tracker Sensor Fusion by a Complimentary Separate-Bias Kalman Filter
Santa Clara, California
March 30-April 03
ISBN: 0-8186-7295-1
Current virtual environment and teleoperator applications are hampered by the need for an accurate, quick-responding head-tracking system with a large working volume. Gyroscopic orientation sensors can overcome problems with jitter, latency, interference, line-of-sight obscurations, and limited range, but suffer from slow drift. Gravimetric inclinometers can detect attitude without drifting, but are slow and sensitive to transverse accelerations. This paper describes the design of a Kalman filter to integrate the data from these two types of sensors in order to achieve the excellent dynamic response of an inertial system without drift, and without the acceleration sensitivity of inclinometers.
