Abstract

Integration of GPS/INS navigation systems is a common topic for aeronautical and road applications. The use of these technologies for personal localisation requires more than just portable sensors and a change of ergonomics; it requires a totally different approach for dead reckoning algorithms. This paper will focus on different human applications and reveals the particular problem encountered.
