Hii all,
I am working on the data processing of the data that have been generated from the accelerometer and gyroscope. I want to find the displacement from the raw data from the two sensors. I am using MPU-6050 as sensor module. Plz provide me the solution for the same or the guidance.
Thank you.
You can find the displacement from accelerometer output data (acceleration) by calculating the differentiation to get the velocity then repeat the same with velocity to get the displacement using any software such as Origin pro.
A simple solution as suggested by Abdel-Rahman works in theory but is complicated by signal drift and noise. Errors will exponentially increase when double-integrating the acceleration signal. As a result, the calculated displacement will be highly unreliable. Luckily, more sophisticated methods exist. One approach that has shown to work particularly well involves periodically applying a zero-velocity update in the integration process. However, this requires knowledge about an instance during which the sensor will be stationary. If your question is related to walking or running, I suggest reading up on Pedestrian Dead Reckoning and ZUPT algorithms. Here are some helpful resources:

@Abdel-Rahman Akl
@Clemens Markus Brahms: Thanks both of you. I will try to implement the suggestions and get back to you.
Thanks Brahms, yes I mean calculate the integration as a simple way to get the displacement, but definitely I agree with your opinion. So, we can use any software for processing and filtering data to decrease the noise. Many software can do these processes such as Origin pro, SigView, or MatLab.
