Thanks goes to Philipp Clausen of Labo TOPO, EPFL, Switzerland, topo.epfl.ch, Tel:[phone] for providing a matlab function that reads in IMUs. This function is a heavily modified port of MATLAB code into Armadillo/C++.

Examples

if (FALSE) {
# Relative
setwd("F:/")

a = read.imu(file = "Documents/James/short_test_data.imu", type = "IXSEA")

# Fixed path
b = read.imu(file = "F:/Desktop/short_test_data.imu", type = "IXSEA")
