Abstract:
The aim of this work is the development of a rapid protoyping platform for the implementation of inertial navigation systems, using Model-Based Design method. MATLAB/Simulink represent the software development tool where the design projects are created, simulated and deployed on embedded systems. We will be targeting the Xilinx Zynq-7000 SoC equipping the ZedBoard development board. An illustration of the platform’s applications was demonstrated by testing an Attitude and Heading Reference System (AHRS) algorithm: the Gradient Decent Orientation Filter (GDOF) using real time measurements from the MPU6050 IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) sensor interfaced to the ZedBoard.
