Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU)
Current IMU solutions are somewhat ad-hoc and
mission-specific based on perfor mance
requirements and limitations of sensors due to
size, weight, and power. IMU performance and
size are diametrically opposed, i.e., small IMUs
h a ve l o w e r - p e r f o r m a n c e a n d h i g h e r -
performance IMUs are large.
