SCAAT: incremental tracking with incomplete information
@article{Welch1997SCAATIT, title={SCAAT: incremental tracking with incomplete information}, author={Greg Welch and Gary Bishop}, journal={Proceedings of the 24th annual conference on Computer graphics and interactive techniques}, year={1997} }
The Kalman filter provides a powerful mathematical framework within which a minimum mean-square-error estimate of a user's position and orientation can be tracked using a sequence of single sensor observations, as opposed to groups of observations. We refer to this new approach as single-constraint-at-a-time or SCAAT tracking. The method improves accuracy by properly assimilating sequential observations, filtering sensor measurements, and by concurrently autocalibrating mechanical or electrical…
