Failure in determining attitude and bank

Post by jhjeon82 »

Hi,

While I'm gathering data, I confronted weird phenomena with attitude and bank data. In some cases, attitude is 180 degs and bank is 0. And heading is not a fixed value, but it's wrong. In those cases, quaternions seemed to be still correct. So I'm just suspicious that those are some kinds of failures in determining attitude, bank, and heading in algorithm, and 180 & 0 are initial values.

Below, att_cal means calculated value using quaternions, and so on. (How can I attach some codes or data?)

Thanks,
