Regd. the IMU intrinsic parameters #1

Hi,

Thank you for your work on this dataset, it is very useful.

I noticed that the provided IMU noise parameters are much higher than the true values provided in AirSim. Can I know how these values were determined?

The performance of VINS is very sensitive to the calibration parameters, especially the IMU values, hence my query.

Hi karnikram,

Thank you for the question!

We have determined the value high enough so that VINS-Fusion (and VINS-Mono) works fine without any noisy drifts. (This is because, during our experiment, setting the true noise parameter defined in the given link sometimes caused a huge drift.)

Hi @kminoda, that's interesting, thanks for letting me know!
