Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of AHRS modules, in particular to a method for improving the precision of a micro-AHRS module and a micro-AHRS module, more preferably, to a low-cost and high-precision micro-AHRS module and a method for improving the precision of a micro-AHRS module. Background technique [0002] The attitude and heading reference system (AHRS) is an inertial measurement device used to accurately measure the attitude of the carrier in three axes (pitch, roll, yaw) in the space coordinate system. Fields such as ships, virtual reality, and the automotive industry all play a very important role. With the commercialization of MEMS components, micromachined gyroscopes and accelerometers have begun to be used for attitude measurement. The attitude system consists of 3 micromachined gyroscopes, 3 micromachined accelerometers and a 3-axis geomagnetic sensor. The gravity vector and the geomagnetic vector are selected as re...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

In the process of research, the inventor found that traditional inertial navigation systems use gyroscopes and accelerometers to determine the attitude of the carrier relative to a fixed coordinate system, and the bias drift of such gyroscopes is quite stable for a long time, but the volume is large , high power consumption, high cost

In applications that are sensitive to cost, volume, and power consumption, such as micro-unmanned aerial vehicles, robots, and human motion perception, there is an ...
