IMU filter for ROS

Primary LanguageC++

imu_filter

This is a project that uses IMU filter algorithm in ROS(Robot Operating System). The IMU I use is ICM 20602, consisting of a tri-axis gyroscope and a tri-axis accelerometer.

Parameters

Dynamically Reconfigurable Parameters

(Mahony_filter) twoKp twoKi
(Madgwick_filter) beta
To tune the dynamic parameters after runnig the node, input

rosrun rqt_configure rqt_reconfigure

According to Madgwick's thesis, the suggested beta = sqrt(3.0f / 4.0f) * gyroMeasError. ICM20602's gyroscope sensitivity erroris ±1%. Thus the default beta is setting to 0.1088. As the specific application, the value can be tuned accoring to response and requriments.

Non-dynamically Reconfigurable Parameters

sampleFreq(float, default: 400.0)
You can change its value at the beginning, Such as:

rosrun filter Madgwick_filter _sampleFreq:=200

provied tf Transforms

odom -> imu
So you can open rviz and set the fixed frame "odom", add TF then you can use it to verify the effect directly. Alt Text

Result

The Madgwick_filter node's effect is acceptable, but the Mahony_filter is disappointing.
