Abstract

Using Euler angles in inertial navigation systems

This article discusses the features of using Euler angles in the process of determining the position of an object in space. The material presented here will help to study in detail the use of Euler angles when working with inertial navigation sensors and facilitate the understanding of the construction of systems using such devices. Today, such embedded automated systems are used in a wide variety of fields: in aircraft modeling, in medicine, military equipment, and agriculture, and the scale of their use is growing every year. Devices that track the position of the body in space are widely used in such systems as drones, mobile robots, remote-controlled manipulators. These devices can significantly reduce the need for human participation in heavy and dangerous work.

Keywords: Euler angles, accelerometer, gyroscope, magnetometer, object orientation, inertial navigation sensors, yaw, pitch, roll
