First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of sensing motion in a three-dimensional (3D) space, the method comprising:
- reading a plurality of values in three axes gotten from at least one accelerometer contained in a device;
reading a plurality of values in two axes of at least one gyroscope of the device;
using the plurality of values in the three axes of the accelerometer and the plurality of values in the two axes of the gyroscope to generate a rotation radius of the device;
using the rotation radius of the device and the plurality of values in the two axes of the gyroscope to generate tangential accelerations in the two axes of the device; and
using the plurality of values in the two axes of the accelerometer, the tangential accelerations in the two axes of the device, the plurality of values in the two axes of the gyroscope, and the rotation radius of the device to generate a motion output of the device.

Abstract
An accelerometer and a gyroscope are disposed in a device. When the device rotates in a 3D space, angle of the device relative to gravity is calculated, movement of the device relative to gravity is calculated during the rotation process, and a real trace of the device is obtained in the 3D space.
