  • Device for adjusting and self-testing inertial sensors, and method
    Publication number: 20160170502
    Abstract: A device includes a camera, a processing unit, and at least one inertial sensor. The processing unit is set up to determine a first movement profile of the device from movement data of the at least one inertial sensor. The processing unit is set up to determine a second movement profile of the device from image data of an object observed using the camera.
