This application provides a dynamic visualization of the device's 3D orientation through an interactive 3D compass. By leveraging the capabilities of various sensors and advanced sensor-fusion techniques, it offers a unique experience where users can see the results of their device's movements in real-time.

The application stands out due to its innovative use of virtual sensor fusion, introducing "Improved Orientation Sensor 1" and "Improved Orientation Sensor 2". These sensors combine the Android Rotation Vector with a virtual Gyroscope sensor, achieving unprecedented stability and precision in pose estimation.

For those interested in comparing different sensor technologies, the app includes a variety of sensor options:

• Improved Orientation Sensor 1: A fusion of the Android Rotation Vector and Calibrated Gyroscope, offering less stability but higher accuracy.
• Improved Orientation Sensor 2: Another fusion of the Android Rotation Vector and Calibrated Gyroscope, providing more stability but slightly less accuracy.
• Android Rotation Vector: Utilizes a Kalman filter to combine data from the Accelerometer, Gyroscope, and Compass.
• Calibrated Gyroscope: Represents the separate output from the Kalman filter fusion of the Accelerometer, Gyroscope, and Compass.
• Gravity + Compass: A straightforward combination of these two sensors.
• Accelerometer + Compass: Another basic sensor fusion method.
• Deprecated Android Orientation Sensor: Uses a complementary filter to merge data from the Accelerometer, Gyroscope, and Compass.
