The present disclosure discloses a computer-implemented method for a pitch angle recognition of a steering column in a vehicle. In aspects, the computer-implemented method includes measuring first acceleration data using a first acceleration sensor and measuring second acceleration data using a second acceleration sensor. The computer-implemented method further includes determining drift data of at least one of the first acceleration sensor and the second acceleration sensor based on the first acceleration data and the second acceleration data. Additionally, the computer-implemented method includes determining a pitch angle of the steering column based on the drift data, the first acceleration data, and the second acceleration data.
