A ROS package written in C++ that analyzes IMU performance by computing Allan variance from stationary sensor data. It estimates gyroscope and accelerometer white noise and bias instability parameters, outputting YAML values and Matlab-drawn figures.

Use cases

  • characterize IMU noise parameters for sensor fusion
  • compute Allan variance from a two-hour stationary IMU recording
  • estimate gyroscope white noise and bias instability
  • generate calibration YAML files for VINS or SLAM pipelines
  • compare noise performance of different IMU models
  • analyze rosbag-recorded IMU data offline

When to choose

  • you use ROS and need IMU noise parameters for visual-inertial navigation
  • you want a C++ Allan variance tool with Matlab plotting scripts
  • you need standard gyr_n/acc_n/gyr_w/acc_w values for filter tuning

When to avoid

  • you need a non-ROS standalone tool
  • you want fully automated plotting without Matlab
  • you need real-time IMU calibration rather than offline analysis
