This application provides a dynamic visualization of the device's 3D orientation through an interactive 3D compass. By harnessing the power of multiple sensors and advanced sensor-fusion techniques, it offers users a comprehensive view of how their device's movement translates into the digital realm.

The app integrates data from the Gyroscope, Accelerometer, and compass, blending these inputs in innovative ways to produce a 3D compass that responds seamlessly to the device's rotation. This feature not only enhances the user experience but also showcases the potential of sensor technology in mobile devices.

A standout feature of this application is the introduction of two novel virtual sensors: "Improved Orientation Sensor 1" and "Improved Orientation Sensor 2". These sensors merge the Android Rotation Vector with a virtual Gyroscope, resulting in an unprecedented level of stability and precision in pose estimation. This fusion allows for a more accurate and stable representation of the device's orientation.

For those interested in comparing different sensor technologies, the application offers a range of options:

• Improved Orientation Sensor 1: Combines the Android Rotation Vector with a Calibrated Gyroscope. This sensor prioritizes accuracy over stability.
• Improved Orientation Sensor 2: Also fuses the Android Rotation Vector with a Calibrated Gyroscope but focuses on stability, even if it means slightly less accuracy.
• Android Rotation Vector: Utilizes a Kalman filter to integrate data from the Accelerometer, Gyroscope, and Compass.
• Calibrated Gyroscope: Presents the standalone result of a Kalman filter fusion involving the Accelerometer, Gyroscope, and Compass.
• Gravity + Compass: A simpler fusion method that uses gravity and compass data.
• Accelerometer + Compass: Another straightforward fusion approach combining the Accelerometer and Compass.
• Deprecated Android Orientation Sensor: Employs a complementary filter to fuse data from the Accelerometer, Gyroscope, and Compass.
