Zusammenfassung:A device implementing a system for estimating device orientation includes at least one processor configured to obtain a first estimate for a heading of a device, the first estimate being based on output from a magnetometer of the device. The at least one processor is further configured to capture image data using an image sensor of the device, and determine at least one second estimate of the heading based on correlating the image data with mapping data. The at least one processor is further configured to determine a bias associated with output of the magnetometer based on the first estimate and the at least one second estimate, and adjusting output of the magnetometer based on the determined bias.
