First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system for measuring a position or an orientation of an object, comprising:
- a first set of sensors comprising one or more sensors providing output signals each representative of a measurement of motion relative to the object'"'"'s body frame, wherein one or more of the sensors measure at least one vector in the object'"'"'s body frame, such sensors including one or more rotation sensors; and
a signal combiner combining the output signals of the first set of sensors over multiple time points, and processing the result of the combination to provide a measurement of velocity, position or orientation.
