| Absolute orientation |
the orientation of the local coordinate system (LCS) of a system with respect to its GCS |
| Absolute orientation error |
the difference between the orientation of the LCS of a magneto-inertial measurement unit (MIMU) computed by a sensor fusion algorithm (SFA) and its actual orientation computed by the optical reference (SP) and expressed by the angle given by the axis-angle convention |
|
absolute orientation error corresponding to the selection of the default parameter values |
|
minimum absolute orientation error which corresponds to the selection of the optimal parameter values |
| Optimal parameter region |
the range of parameter values for which the orientation errors are equal to plus 0.5 deg |
