1. A system comprising:

  • an elongate member extending between a proximal end and a distal end;

    one or more sensing elements positioned on the elongate member, the one or more sensing elements configured to provide at least;

    proximal data associated with a proximal region of the elongate member, anddistal data associated with a distal region of the elongate member;

    at least one non-transitory computer readable medium having stored thereon executable instructions; and

    at least one processor in communication with the at least one non-transitory computer readable medium and configured to execute the instructions to;

    receive the proximal data and the distal data from the one or more sensing elements,filter the proximal data to reduce orientation error associated with the proximal region, anddetermine a shape of the elongate member based on the filtered proximal data.
