Sensor Fusion - It's Hot!

The article discusses the new trend of integrating mechanical systems in electronics, control, and software design which complements the filtering process in meeting demand requirements. It explains the concept of the time-varying signal that applies to both the high-pass and low-pass filters which result to a summation output of exactly equal to the input signal. It adds that the sensor fusion of rate gyro and inclinometer is an emerging tool for the mechatronics engineer.
