LSM6DSOX AHRS Yaw measurement not correct
Hi there!
We are using the LSM6DSOX in our product and doing sensor fusion using xioTechnologies/Fusion.
Our hardware is mass produced and we are using the LSM6DSOX sensor with no magnetometer using 52Hz ODR and 104Hz ODR. The change in ODR doesn't seem to make any difference.
We have calibrated our sensors, especially the gyroscope.
Using xioTechnologies/Fusion algorithm with calibrated sensor reading removes the yaw drift and gives us very stable measurements over time.
What we noticed though, is that yaw rotations are not measured correctly. This happens both with and without calibration.
When rotating the device 180° in real life, the yaw measurement is not ~180°:
- for one device we are missing ~20° --> 180° IRL ≡ ~160° for the device
- for another one, we get ~10° more --> 180° IRL ≡ ~190° for the device
The measures are stable for each device and the error is always ~ the same, but it's a big issue for us to not be able to have our device rotate correctly when we need them to.
🙋 do you have any ideas what could be causing that? and how to fix it?
Thanks a lot for your kind help :)
