We consider measurements from a minimal sensor suite, typically a rateKeywords: Asymptotically stable; Observer errors; Sensor suite; Single vectors; Special orthogonal group; Stability analysis; Theoretical study; Vector measurements; GyroscopesNonlinear attitude observers on SO(3) for complementary and reciprocal measurements: a theoretical study200910.1109/CDC.2009.53998212016-02-24
