    I would like to implement a Qt application that visualizes the orientation in space of a sensor providing accelerometer, gyroscope, and magnetometer values. Do you have any suggestions on where to find libraries that, given these input values, can output orientation information (such as quaternions or angles)? Something like a Madgwick filter or similar.

    Thanks

      @Andrew23 said in Library to find orientation from inertial data:

      Isn't this exactly what your sensors should return?
      I mean, you have access to the sensor data... so you can do stuff with it.
      All depends on your hardware and API...

      But how is this related to Qt?
      If you extract the data, there will surely be a way to visualize it with Qt.

        if you want to access device internal sensors (android, ios, surface pro), then the Qt Sensors module is what you need.
        for the rotations and other math stuff Qt implements quaternions and matrices.
