Abstract

See full text

Apparatuses, methods and systems apparatus for low-power orientation estimation are disclosed. One apparatus includes an accelerometer, wherein the accelerometer generates a sensed acceleration of the accelerometer, a magnetic sensor, wherein the magnetic sensor generates a sensed magnetic field ambient to the magnetic sensor, a gyroscope, wherein the gyroscope generates a sensed orientation of the gyroscope, wherein at least one of the accelerometer, the magnetic sensor and the gyroscope operates at a first sampling rate. The apparatus further includes an adaptive filter. The adaptive filter operates at a second rate to generate an orientation estimate (Q) based on computational processing of at least the sensed acceleration, the sensed magnetic field, and the sensed orientation of the gyroscope, wherein the second rate is different than the first sampling rate.
