A sensor may be automatically calibrated during manufacture by providing a sensor processing unit having an integrated sensor, performing a check to determine if the integrated sensor has been previously calibrated upon a reset. When it has been determined the integrated sensor has not been previously calibrated, an automated calibration pattern may be imparted to the sensor so that a calibration parameter is determined.

Systems and methods of correcting for signal drift in optical image stabilization of a portable device. An accelerometer is used to obtain an acceleration signal corresponding to acceleration of the portable device. A gravity component is removed from the accelerometer signal to obtain a proper acceleration signal. A double integration is performed on the proper acceleration signal to obtain a translation signal. A drift component of the translation signal is estimated. The estimated drift component is used to generate a drift correction signal. A phase compensation signal is determined based on a plurality of phase responses of a plurality of components of the optical image stabilization system. The drift correction signal and the phase compensation signal are applied to an actuator controller which controls movement of a lens within the portable device as part of the process for optical image stabilization.

A synchronization system for an acoustic signal-based and inertial signal-based positioning system is provided that generates a magnetic field as a synchronization signal. The modulated magnetic synchronization signal is transmitted by a transmitter of the positioning system and received by the receiver of the positioning system. The receiver may make an acoustic position determination for the transmitter based on a received modulated synchronization signal and may make an inertial position determination for the transmitter based on the received inertial signal, such that the acoustic position determination and the inertial position determination are fused.

In a method of motion sensor calibration, a motion with which to calibrate a motion sensor is determined. The motion sensor is controlled by a sensor processor and the motion sensor is comprised within a user interface that is coupled with a gaming engine. The sensor processor and the gaming engine coordinate regarding the motion. The sensor processor monitors the motion sensor for evidence of the motion made as a user input via the user interface in response to game content implemented by the gaming engine, based on the coordination, to incite the motion. The sensor processor calibrates the motion sensor with the motion.

A pressure sensor of a mobile device may be corrected by receiving reference pressure information from an associated device. The correction using differential pressure measurements may be influenced by one or more determined condition characteristics.
