Abstract
A method and a device for determining an angle of rotation of an object about a rotation axis. The method includes measuring a first acceleration profile of an acceleration sensor mounted on the object during a first period of time; and computing the angle of rotation by which the object has rotated about the rotation axis during the first period of time, based on the first accelerations during the first period of time and based on a predetermined distance of the acceleration sensor from the rotation axis. The device includes an acceleration sensor which is mountable on the object; and a computing device which is designed for determining the angle of rotation based on an acceleration profile measured by the acceleration sensor during a period of time, and based on a predetermined distance of the acceleration sensor from the rotation axis.
