The drone\u2019s roll, pitch, and yaw with just accelerometer and gyroscope were analyzed under the noise impact. A 6 Degree of Freedom (DoF) Parrot Mambo drone with Matlab\/Simulink package was used to validate the advancements before and after fusing NMNI with KF. The drone propeller motors were controlled at a suitable speed level to keep the drone on the zero-inclination ground for angle error validation. The experiments show that KF alone successfully minimizes the variation for the inclination, but it still needs the NMNI support to enhance the performance in noise deduction, with the error only about 0.02\u00b0. In addition, the NMNI algorithm successfully prevents the yaw\/heading from gyroscope drifting due to the zero-value integration during no rotation with the maximum error of 0.03\u00b0.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s23125603","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,6,15]],"date-time":"2023-06-15T03:18:46Z","timestamp":1686799126000},"page":"5603","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["Fusion Filters between the No Motion No Integration Technique and Kalman Filter in Noise Optimization on a 6DoF Drone for Orientation Tracking"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"23","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3622-4327","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Minh Long","family":"Hoang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Engineering and Architecture, University of Parma, 43124 Parma, PR, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8146-6088","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Marco","family":"Carrat\u00f9","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Industrial Engineering, University of Salerno, 84084 Fisciano, SA, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9284-1741","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Vincenzo","family":"Paciello","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Industrial Engineering, University of Salerno, 84084 Fisciano, SA, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Antonio","family":"Pietrosanto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Industrial Engineering, University of Salerno, 84084 Fisciano, SA, Italy"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,6,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Choi, S.-C., Sung, N.-M., Park, J.-H., Ahn, I.-Y., and Kim, J.
