Measuring the orientation of the mobile objects is essential for autonomous navigation. In order to construct low cost, miniature aerial vehicles a miniature inertial measurement unit was designed and constructed by the research team from Silesian University of Technology. Presented device can be distinguished by many times smaller volume than the solutions currently available at the market. It is worth mentioning with smaller size comes no degradation of the quality of measurements. Therefore it is possible to the presented sensor for real life applications.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
