Can't wait for the implementation! Great video! Kalman filters are a huge topic. I've seen your Quaternion EKF implementation, I think it would be very nice to see what would change in the EKF given each choice of attitude representation.
Thanks so much, Phil for the videos and the content in them. I really appreciate your efforts. my suggestion is, if you could do more videos on how to write drivers from scratch i.e read and writing to sensors.
Hey Phil, can you make some content about how to expand this EKF for a 9DOF IMU inorder to get absolute attitude wrt the NED frame Btw you have done an amazing job with this video series and I really prefer the simplicity There was a huge lack of resources for this topic on RUclips
Would love to try this with a laser scanner lidar sensor, had a project in university for an automatically guided vehicle that was plagued from slow scan rate (7 Hz)
Man I think you'll be the reason that I'll actually be able to get into real electronics design. If I am ever good enough to do it I swear I'll at least make a few videos to help others like you do
I used to work servicing, repairing & building drones, during the period when DJI Naza flight controllers and DJI Phantoms had the undocumented flyaway (return to China) feature - OH your drone flew away, you will have to purchase a new one. Emotional over-investment was common amongst owners and the heartbreak was real...anyway. Never proven, but suspected to me erroneous readings or data corruption of GPS location - someone did actually manage to recover their 'lost' drone, acquire and read the logs. From memory, the drone 'thought' it was travelling at 18,000,000 km/s or hour - I forget which. Plenty of others did experience random crashes (IMU data corruption), so much was near impossible to prove with an intransigent supplier that never accepted responsibility. Now I understood much of what you just went through in the 3 video series, I couldn't write any code mind you, interesting part was the kalmann filter - It's interesting to see the filtering and what is essentially a feedback loop to account for the sensor drift and your readings become more refined with each iteration/development of the code. Why the long message, well at the time of the fugitive drones we suspect that the flight control software did not have any means to account for erroneous or corrupted data and it just acted on it, with irrepressible enthusiasm. I'm was very interested to see how your method deals with data point(s) which are so far outside plausible estimate that they have to be discarded, essentially that 'trust' coefficient of estimate -v- sensor reading. It was a great explanation of just how much finesse goes into getting sensible date via the fusion of the two sensors. thank you
Hi Phil, Thanks for your great videos. Is there a problem in estimating yaw angle using your Extended Kalman Filter? (Why you are not estimating yaw angle too) Thanks.
Hello and thank you. It would be awesome of you created a video with software Implementation of EKF, just like the one you have on the PID controller. Thank you very much!
Thank you so much for this series! I don't know how you deal with different sensor update rate? What if the accelerometer is running at 10Hz and the gyroscope is running at 5Hz?
I have to say Q and R matrices are tricky. You can adjust them to get a smoother estimation for your academic paper or a rough result just for a demonstration. All depend on which you trust more, prediction ? or measurement? If you just follow the parameter in the datasheet, normally you just got a bad result. Allan variance could be helpful, but need more data and time to obtain, and the improvement is just a little.
Hi Phil, great job as usual! Reading Handwritten notes seem to hard a bit, so can you show equations more clearly, thanks. can't wait to see the gimbal lock solution on implementation.
Amazing video Phil! It's a good refresher for people like me who did this in college and now have forgotten everything :) Would like to suggest a minor correction though, at 11:48 the equation should be K = P * C^T * [ C * P * C^T + R ]^-1. Cheers!!
I wonder how one would deal with the fact that IMU measures accelerations relative to it's own center of mass, which is different from the system's COM?
This whole channel needs to be put into a museum for future generations. Exquisite work.
Thank you very much!
Great work!! Please upload Part 4.

Amazing, simple and instructive video. I have studied kalman for years and haven't seen such didactic. Well done!
Great job on breaking this down, can't wait for the practical example!
Thank you very much, next video coming soon!
Thanks Phil, a great tutorial on the EKF.
Thank you very much, Mike!
Thanks so much, Phil for the videos and the content in them. I really appreciate your efforts. my suggestion is, if you could do more videos on how to write drivers from scratch i.e read and writing to sensors.
Thank you, Rob - I'll try to make similar videos on the topics you mentioned in the future :)
great
waiting for your next video
Hey Phil, can you make some content about how to expand this EKF for a 9DOF IMU inorder to get absolute attitude wrt the NED frame
Btw you have done an amazing job with this video series and I really prefer the simplicity
There was a huge lack of resources for this topic on RUclips
You made this really simple to understand.. great work.. does the next part already uploaded? Im looking forward to this
There is Mahony's IMU algorithm, which is different to both Kallman and complementary filters.
Great series! Any idea of when you’ll work on part 4 ?
Thanks! Part 4 is out now!
Exist a sourcecode example for this filter? Have many THANKS
i am still waiting for the next video on this topic. great work
thank you very much for the great video.. looking forward to the practical implementation video
Dear Phil, Thank u so much for your video(s). Would you please put the link to the next video here in the description part?
Why are you adding accelerometer readings to gyro readings? I think accelerometer vector should be converted to angles first?
Would love to try this with a laser scanner lidar sensor, had a project in university for an automatically guided vehicle that was plagued from slow scan rate (7 Hz)
Can you recommend also any other books on such topics ? Thanks!
Just what I needed for my startup, many thanks Phil you are gold
Thank you, Paul - glad it's helpful!
Hope you can share the EKF implementation soon. I enjoyed my university control system classes. I loved your presentation. Keep on it!
Hi ! Very nice videos series ! I hope part 4 will be available soon ! Thank you.

Very wonderful, we wait part 4 ✌
Hi sir please i have a small work for you 🙏🙏. How can I reach you privately?
Hi Phil, Thanks for your great videos.
Is there a problem in estimating yaw angle using your Extended Kalman Filter? (Why you are not estimating yaw angle too)
Thanks.
Thanks Mr. @Phil . I was waiting for the kalman filter tutorials a lot.
Thank you for watching!
I would very much enjoy if you could do a video about error-state kalman filter.
Hello and thank you. It would be awesome of you created a video with software Implementation of EKF, just like the one you have on the PID controller. Thank you very much!
Thank you so much for this series!

can't wait to see the gimbal lock solution on implementation.
could you pls upload the slide? thanks for your series. I learned alot.
Amazing video Phil! It's a good refresher for people like me who did this in college and now have forgotten everything :)
Would like to suggest a minor correction though, at 11:48 the equation should be K = P * C^T * [ C * P * C^T + R ]^-1.
Cheers!!
Amazing vídeo as always! Still looking foward to see the last video.
hi how are you. you know all the sensor that you have build can all of then be used on your flight computer?
Thanks, any chance of getting the implementation video?
Woot
when you release the next video , so exciting to see
Hello Phil. This is a great series. Are you planning to shoot the 4th video? Is there any news?
Amazing fr!
I wonder how one would deal with the fact that IMU measures accelerations relative to it's own center of mass, which is different from the system's COM?
you apply lever arm compensation.
Can you please release the part 4 of this series?
I may need to take down notes from this nice lecture. It is very interesting!
Thanks!
Thank you for sharing.
Well, that escalated quickly :)
Thanks for posting, excellent video!
Thank you for watching!
or how can I join hem to your flight computer
A god for this explanation.
Thank you!
what about yaw?
Yaw is something teenage girls say
Finally. Thanks a lot Phil :)
Thanks for watching!
Excellent tutorial . Eager to get the next part.
