1. A method for determining changes in orientation of an object in six degrees of freedom, comprising:

  • providing first and second linear accelerometers disposed on an imaginary axis relative to the object;

    measuring, with the first linear accelerometer, a first linear movement of the object in relation to an x-y-z coordinate system;

    measuring, with the second linear accelerometer, a second linear movement of the object in relation to the x-y-z coordinate system; and

    measuring with the first and second linear accelerometers an angular rotation of the object in relation to two axes of rotation.
