TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used an atomic accelerometer onboard an aircraft to achieve one-shot sensitivities of 2.3 × 10−4 g over a range of ∼ 0.1 g.

TL;DR: In this article, the first inertial measurements with an atomic accelerometer onboard an aircraft were reported, along both the horizontal and vertical axes of the aircraft with one-shot sensitivities of $2.3 \times 10-4 \times 4 \times 1.1 \sim 0.1

TL;DR: In this article, the authors hybridize an atom interferometer with a classical accelerometer, using an approach based on Kalman filtering that provides optimal, robust estimation of the accelerometer's bias, even in a harsh environment.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an experimental setup and an algorithm hybridizing a stable matter-wave interferometer with a classical accelerometer, and apply the Kalman filter formalism to obtain an optimal estimate of the bias and simulate a harsh environment representative of that encountered in mobile sensing applications.

TL;DR: Clearly there are difficulties on the way to a FOG-based strapdown system able to navigate with an accuracy of 1 nautical mile over several weeks; however, FOG technology has not reached its ultimate potential yet and that the dream of even higher performance is within reach.
