A method for estimation of relative coordinates between at least two parts
of a system. The method generally includes two main steps: measuring a
set of relevant coordinates for each part of the system; and processing
each measurement result to estimate the relative coordinates between at
least two parts of the system. The system includes a main body and at
least one sub assembly. A first sensor A is configured to measure a
movement rate of a sub assembly. A second sensor B is configured to
measure a movement rate of a main body. A third absolute measurement
sensor C is configured to estimate an integrator offset and a drift rate
due to the first sensor A bias and due to the second sensor B bias.
