Estimate AHRS attitude with EKF, ESKF and Mahony filter.

IMU_Attitude_Estimator

This project is aimed at estimating the attitude of Attitude Heading and Reference System(AHRS). And the project contains three popular attitude estimator algorithms.

• Mahony's algorithm
• Extend Kalman Filter(EKF)
• Error State Kalman Filter(ESKF)

DataSets.py for converting estimator data.
Allan_Analysis for Allan Variance analysis.

Simple Test

Simple comparision among three methods. And the params of Mahony filter can be further tuned.
