Position estimation

Hi, everyone. Do you know if the visual-inertial odometry in the bebop package is using a Kalman filter or some filtering algorithm to estimate the drone Position?

As far as I know, the Bebop is using a simple Kalman Filter on Optical Flow estimates from the down facing camera. It uses the SONAR (low pass filtered) to get a metric conversion on velocity.
