Assuming we observe or measure the height of the ball directly. The<br />

measurement equation is:<br />

z(k) = [1 0] x(k)<br />

+ w(k)<br />

= H x(<br />

k) + w( k)<br />

The variance of w(k) needs to be known for implementing a <strong>Kalman</strong> filter.<br />

Given the initial state and covariance, we have sufficient information to find the<br />

optimal state estimate using the <strong>Kalman</strong> filter equations.<br />
