Strange behavior with android orientation sensor

by

This is a common problem with yaw, pitch and roll. You cannot get rid of it as long as you are using yaw, pitch and roll (Euler angles). This video explains why.

I use rotation matrices instead of Euler angles in my motion sensing application. For an introduction to rotation matrices I recommend:

Rotation matrices work like a charm.

Quaternions are also very popular and said to be the most stable.
