Sensor fusion

This application visualizes the 3D orientation of your device through an innovative 3D compass interface. It showcases the potential of various sensors and advanced sensor-fusion techniques, merging data from the Gyroscope, Accelerometer, and Compass to deliver a dynamic, interactive experience. By simply rotating your device, you can manipulate the 3D compass, experiencing firsthand the power of sensor technology.

The standout feature of this app is its use of virtual sensor fusion, introducing two pioneering sensors: "Improved Orientation Sensor 1" and "Improved Orientation Sensor 2." These sensors integrate the Android Rotation Vector with a virtual Gyroscope to provide unparalleled stability and precision in pose estimation, setting a new standard in mobile sensor technology.

For users interested in comparing different sensor technologies, the app offers a variety of options:

• Improved Orientation Sensor 1: Combines Android Rotation Vector with a Calibrated Gyroscope for less stability but higher accuracy.
• Improved Orientation Sensor 2: Merges Android Rotation Vector with a Calibrated Gyroscope for increased stability, albeit with slightly reduced accuracy.
• Android Rotation Vector: Utilizes a Kalman filter to fuse data from the Accelerometer, Gyroscope, and Compass.
• Calibrated Gyroscope: Provides a standalone result from the Kalman filter fusion of the Accelerometer, Gyroscope, and Compass.
• Gravity + Compass: A straightforward combination of these sensors.
• Accelerometer + Compass: Another basic sensor fusion method.
• Deprecated Android Orientation Sensor: Uses a complementary filter to integrate the Accelerometer, Gyroscope, and Compass.

For those interested in the technical aspects, the source code is openly accessible. You can find the link in the About-section of the app.
