Abstract

A calibration system for an inertial sensor includes a calibration module for processing an output value produced by the inertial sensor, the output value related to a detected movement of an object, wherein the calibration module calculates an offset value from a plurality of output values, and memory operatively coupled with the calibration module, the memory capable of storing the plurality of output values and/or the offset value, wherein the inertial sensor is calibrated using the calculated offset value.
