Abstract

We present a sensor fusion framework for real-time tracking applications combining inertial sensors with a camera. In order to make clear how to exploit the information in the inertial sensor, two different fusion models gyroscopes only model and accelerometers model are presented under extended Kalman filter framework. Gyroscopes only model uses gyroscopes to support the vision-based tracking without considering acceleration measurements. Accelerometers model utilizes both measurements from the gyroscopes, accelerometers and vision data to estimate the camera pose, velocity, acceleration and sensor biases. Synthetic data and real image experimental sequences show dramatic improvements in tracking stability and robustness of estimated motion parameters for gyroscope model, when the accelerometer measurements exist drift.
