Parameter value in bias instability modeling
In IMU error modeling, bias instability/flicker noise is often modeled by a first order Gauss-Markov process whose standard deviation is equal to the given BI coefficient [1, p.185][2, p.31]. Because ...

Estimator of accelerometer offset
I would like to estimate the offset of my accelerometer without using anything but measurements of the sensor. Is there any estimator for this? Averaging all the data points would probably do the ...

Estimate bits per pixel from RAW photo
Nowadays many consumer products like smartphones or action cameras support RAW photos. Typically, they spit out a DNG/TIFF file with 16 bit values. However, the actual bit depth of the A/D is rather ...

How to sync two similar lists/waveforms with differently populated data in python?
I have two lists of sizes L1 - 22400(865*26) and L2 - 79000 with measurements of some environmental data. Data of both the lists are measured simultaneously. The L2 is a continuous measurement for ...

Upsampling realtime data for sensor fusion
I am doing a real-time sensor fusion of gps and imu streams using a Kalman filter. Both streams are obtained independently (with geolocation and accl-gyro values) in real time. I am doing this in ...

Gyroscope sensor drift problem at speed
I have an iPhone mounted on a bike to measure the slope of the road in real-time. This works pretty well at first but as soon as I speed up, the reported pitch starts to drift. I'm using CoreMotion ...

Would an image sensor with photosites arranged irregularly to reduce aliasing be feasible?
I’m guessing it’ll be more computationally complex considering the irregularly sampled image would have to be converted to a regularly sampled one and probably a different demosaicing algorithm would ...

Accelerometer beacon as game controller lag
As part of our product, we use a sensor/beacon to measure the inclination/angle of the product. We do this with a KKM 3-axis accelerometer (model: https://www.kkmcn.com/long-range-beacon-k5p). However,...

Detecting camera raw image saturation/clipping level
I'm looking for a fast but robust algorithm to detect whether a camera raw image has clipped/saturated highlights and, if so, compute the level at which saturation occurs. This saturation/clipping ...

Sampling Frequency of a Rotational Sensor
In the picture above you can see a sensor I've been dealing with, called a "Caliper". This sensor arm simply passes over the pits or bumps on a disk rotating with a constant angular velocity ...
