Hello People,

Can we determine the direction of robot movement (forward or backward or standing still) using data combined from accelerometer and gyroscope ?
As long as the robot is moving forward ( starting to move, moving with constant velocity and decelerating/braking to zero) I want to show as forward.
Similarly for backward movement.

Any hints appreciated.

FYI, I do not have any magnetometer installed.

Regards,
Ruibash
