 * NOTES:
 * =====
 * Concept: Based on [Lupton12tro]
 * - Pre-integrate IMU measurements using the static function PreIntegrateIMUObservations.
 *    Pre-integrated quantities are expressed in the body system of t0 - the first time instant (in which pre-integration began).
 *    All sensor-to-body transformations are performed here.
 * - If required, calculate inertial solution by calling the static functions: predictPose_inertial, predictVelocity_inertial.
 * - When the time is right, incorporate pre-integrated IMU data by creating an EquivInertialNavFactor_GlobalVel_NoBias factor, which will
 *   relate between navigation variables at the two time instances (t0 and current time).
 *
 * Other notes:
 * - The global frame (NED or ENU) is defined by the user by specifying the gravity vector in this frame.
 * - The IMU frame is implicitly defined by the user via the rotation matrix between global and imu frames.
 * - Camera and IMU frames are identical
 * - The user should specify a continuous equivalent noise covariance, which can be calculated using
 *   the static function CalcEquivalentNoiseCov based on the IMU gyro and acc measurement noise covariance
 *   matrices and the process\modeling covariance matrix. The IneritalNavFactor converts this into a
 *   discrete form using the supplied delta_t between sub-sequential measurements.
 * - Earth-rate correction:
 *     + Currently the user should supply R_ECEF_to_G, which is the rotation from ECEF to the global
 *       frame (Local-Level system: ENU or NED, see above).
 *     + R_ECEF_to_G can be calculated by approximated values of latitude and longitude of the system.
 *    + Currently it is assumed that a relatively small distance is traveled w.r.t. to initial pose, since R_ECEF_to_G is constant.
 *      Otherwise, R_ECEF_to_G should be updated each time using the current lat-lon.
 *
 * - Frame Notation:
 *   Quantities are written as {Frame of Representation/Destination Frame}_{Quantity Type}_{Quatity Description/Origination Frame}
 *   So, the rotational velocity of the sensor written in the body frame is: body_omega_sensor
 *   And the transformation from the body frame to the world frame would be: world_P_body
 *   This allows visual chaining. For example, converting the sensed angular velocity of the IMU
 *   (angular velocity of the sensor in the sensor frame) into the world frame can be performed as:
 *       world_R_body * body_R_sensor * sensor_omega_sensor = world_omega_sensor
 *
 *
 * - Common Quantity Types
 *   P : pose/3d transformation
 *   R : rotation
 *   omega : angular velocity
 *   t : translation
 *   v : velocity
 *   a : acceleration
 *
 * - Common Frames
 *   sensor : the coordinate system attached to the sensor origin
 *   body   : the coordinate system attached to body/inertial frame.
 *            Unless an optional frame transformation is provided, the
 *            sensor frame and the body frame will be identical
 *   world  : the global/world coordinate frame. This is assumed to be
 *            a tangent plane to the earth's surface somewhere near the
 *            vehicle
