Magnetic Disturbance Tolerant AHRS

Research Project, 2021

This project focuses on creating a reliable Attitude and Heading Reference System (AHRS) algorithm using real-time data from the ICM-20948 sensor. Specifically designed firmware code was developed for deployment on the TMS320F28377S Texas Instrument processor, enabling the achievement of a high accuracy AHRS estimation at an impressive output rate of 110 Hz. The demonstration in the provided video showcases this accuracy. Moreover, a pivotal feature of the project involves implementing data export in the MAVLINK protocol, facilitating seamless interfacing for UAV and robotics applications, thereby enhancing accessibility and usability within these domains.
