Of heading, posture and body rotations derived from data acquired by animal-borne accelerometers, magnetometers and gyrometers, kernel density estimation of the corresponding spherical distributions, and fine-scale movement reconstruction

This paper provides the mathematical expressions, formulated in classical trigonometric terms, that are required (i) to compute an animal's body orientations and rotations in 3D space from data acquired at high-frequency by on-board accelerometers, magnetometers and gyrometers, (ii) to relate 3D rotations to changes in 3D orientation, (iii) to represent...
