Abstract

Aspects of the disclosure relate to computing technologies. In particular, aspects of the disclosure relate to mobile computing device technologies, such as systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer-readable media for improving orientation data. In some embodiments, a magnetic vector filter receives magnetometer data from a magnetometer and gyroscope data from a gyroscope and determines the magnetic vector using the magnetometer data and the gyroscope data in the magnetic vector filter. In other embodiments, a gravity vector filter receives accelerometer data and gyroscope data and determines the gravity vector using the accelerometer data and the gyroscope data in the gravity vector filter.
