Title: NA-241_Quarterly Report_SBLibby - 12.31.2017_v2

Abstract

This is an evaluation of candidate navigation solutions for GPS free inspection tools that can be used in tours of large building interiors. In principle, COTS portable inertial motion unit (IMU) sensors with satisfactory accuracy, SWAP (size, weight, power), low error, and bias drift can provide sufficiently accurate dead reckoning navigation in a large building in the absence of GPS. To explore this assumption, the capabilities of representative IMU navigation sensors to meet these requirements will be evaluated, starting with a market survey, and then carrying out a basic analysis of these sensors using LLNL’s navigation codes.
