Added animated GIF of tracking

Will probably change the GIF later on, but I wanted to show that the book includes animations.

Introductory textbook for Kalman filters and Bayesian filters. All code is written in Python, and the book itself is written in Ipython Notebook so that you can run and modify the code in the book in place, seeing the results inside the book. What better way to learn?

The quickest way to read the book is to read it online using the link above. The book is written as a collection of IPython Notebooks, an interactive, browser based system that allows you to combine text, Python, and math into your brower. The website http://nbviewer.org provides an IPython Notebook server that renders notebooks stored at github (or elsewhere). The rendering is done in real time when you load the book. If you read my book today, and then I make a change tomorrow, when you go back tomorrow you will see that change.

Perhaps more importantly, the book uses animations to demonstrate how the algorithms perform over time. The PDF version of the book, discussed in the next paragraph, cannot show the animations.
I periodically generate a PDF of the book from the Notebooks. I do not do this for every check in, so the PDF will usually lag the content in github and on nbviewer.org. However, I do generate it whenever I make a substantial change.
