Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2008077595A1] A device, a method, a computer program and a computer readable medium for determining an angular orientation of a plane in space is provided, comprising a first unit adapted to receive a first data set indicative of a first physical parameter, and a second unit adapted to receive a second data set indicative of a second physical parameter. Further the device comprises a calculation unit adapted to calculate a transformation array for a transformation based on the first data set, a transformation unit adapted to transform the second data set by using the transformation array, and a determination unit adapted to determine a first angle indicative of an angular orientation of the object in space based on the transformed second data set.
