# This is a message to hold data from an IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) # # Accelerations should be in m/s^2 (not in g's), and rotational velocity should be in rad/sec # # If the covariance of the measurement is known, it should be filled in (if all you know is the # variance of each measurement, e.g. from the datasheet, just put those along the diagonal) # A covariance matrix of all zeros will be interpreted as "covariance unknown", and to use the # data a covariance will have to be assumed or gotten from some other source # # If you have no estimate for one of the data elements (e.g. your IMU doesn't produce an # orientation estimate), please set element 0 of the associated covariance matrix to -1 # If you are interpreting this message, please check for a value of -1 in the first element of each # covariance matrix, and disregard the associated estimate. std_msgs/Header header geometry_msgs/Quaternion orientation float64[9] orientation_covariance # Row major about x, y, z axes geometry_msgs/Vector3 angular_velocity float64[9] angular_velocity_covariance # Row major about x, y, z axes geometry_msgs/Vector3 linear_acceleration float64[9] linear_acceleration_covariance # Row major x, y z
