High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! MotionProcessing™ is the process of detecting, measuring, synthesizing, analyzing and digitizing an object’s motion in three-dimensional space. MotionProcessing technology combines an inertial measurement unit with digital processing and motion-based applications, enabling consumer devices to readily incorporate motion while still meeting critical cost, size, robustness, and battery life requirements. By attaching motion sensors, such as a three-axis gyroscope and a three-axis accelerometer, the consumer electronic device's movement can be accurately tracked. The gyroscope tracks the rotation of the device as it tilts forward or backward (pitch), turns from portrait to landscape (yaw) and twists from side to side (roll), while the accelerometer measures the linear movement of the device as it moves up or down (y-axis), left or right (x-axis) and toward or away from the user (z-axis). The analog data from the gyroscope and accelerometer can...
