1. A system for measuring a position or an orientation of an object, comprising:
a first set of sensors, including a rotation sensor, providing output signals each representative of a measurement of a vector in the object's body frame; and one or more filters which combine the output signals over multiple time points to provide a system output signal representative of a vector related to one or more of velocity, position, and orientation of the object relative to a predetermined reference frame.
