  • Inertial odometry with retroactive sensor calibration
    Patent number: 10317214
    Abstract: Systems and methods for determining pose parameters of an inertial measurement unit (IMU) sensor include collecting measurement data generated by IMU sensors, using a processor to temporally integrate the measurement data, including any errors, generating a temporally continuous error propagation model, and temporally integrating the model to generate one or more compensation gradients for said pose parameters.
