Abstract

See full text

A processing apparatus determines an estimated direction of motion of an entity physically associated with a device having a plurality of sensors for generating an estimate of a navigational state of the device. The estimated direction of motion is based at least in part on a device-to-frame orientation corresponding to an orientation of the device relative to a predefined inertial frame of reference, and an estimated device-to-entity orientation corresponding to an orientation of the device relative to a direction of motion of the entity. In response to detecting a change in the device-to-frame orientation, the processing apparatus divides the change in the device-to-frame orientation between a change in the estimated direction of motion of the entity and a change in the estimated device-to-entity orientation, and updates the estimated direction of motion of the entity based on the division of the change in the device-to-frame orientation.
