Abstract

A method for compensating for gyroscope drift on an electronic device includes receiving by a data processing unit, measurement data from a gyroscope. The method includes computing, by the data processing unit, a compensation parameter by analyzing the measurement data received from the gyroscope with respect to variations in temperature of the gyroscope. The method includes compensating, by the data processing unit, the measurement data by correcting the measurement data with the computed compensation parameter. The compensation parameter is continuously validated to correct the measurement data with the compensation parameter. Further, the received measurement data is updated continuously based on the computed compensation parameter, independent of the gyroscope on the electronic device, thereby facilitating adaptive drift compensation.
