Abstract
A method comprising determining a set of position parameters for an inertial measurement unit (IMU) on a headset worn by a user. The set of position parameters includes at least a first yaw measurement and a first roll measurement. The set describes a pointing vector. The method further comprises calculating a drift correction component that describes a rate of correction. The drift correction component is based at least in part on the set of position parameters. The method further comprises applying the drift correction component to one or more subsequent yaw measurements for the IMU. The drift correction component forces an estimated nominal position vector to the pointing vector at the rate of correction.
