IMU with respect to Reference Frame
Measure and record the rotations that you must apply, using the Tate-Bryant
sequence explained above, to align your chosen reference frame with the
IMU reference frame.
Sensor 1 with respect to Reference Frame
Sensor 1 is typically a multi-beam transducer. Measure and record the
rotations that you must apply, using the Tate-Bryant sequence explained
above, to align your chosen reference frame with the sensor 1 frame.
Sensor 2 with respect to Reference Frame
Measure and record the rotations that you must apply, using the Tate-Bryant
sequence explained above, to align your chosen reference frame with the
sensor 2 frame.
Note: If your application does not use a second sensor, record these
mounting angles as zero.
