`Claim 14
`comparing the second quaternion in relation to the measured angular velocities ωx, ωy, ωz of the current state at current time T with the
`measured axial accelerations Ax, Ay, Az and the predicted axial accelerations Ax′, Ay′, Az′ also at current time T; obtaining an updated state
`of the six-axis motion sensor module by comparing the current state with the measured state of the six-axis motion sensor module; and
`For example, as previously shown, the measured state, e, is obtained using the update() function, which combines the measured
`axial accelerations, z, and the predicted axial accelerations, Bb. Moreover, the predicted axial accelerations are determined
`based on the measured angular velocities of the current state at the current time T. The update() function further compares the
`measured state, e, and the current state to obtain the updated state, x0.

`
`Claim 14
`calculating and converting the updated state of the six axis motion sensor module to said resulting deviation comprising said
`resultant angles in said spatial pointer reference frame of the 3D pointing device.
`
`U.S. Patent No. 8,441,438 – Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge
`
`The updated state x0 is in quaternion form, and can easily be converted to resultant angles.
`According to Android’s developer library, the getOrientation() function “computes the device’s orientation based on the rotation
`matrix,” and returns resultant angles including the Azimuth, Pitch, and Roll angles.
`
`The getRotationMatrixFromVector() function “convert[s] a rotation vector to a rotation matrix,” and the
`getQuaternionFromVector() function “convert[s] a rotation vector to a normalized quaternion.” Therefore, the quaternion, x0, can
`be easily converted to its mathematically equivalent form, rotation matrix, and used by getOrientation() function to compute the
`orientation in its angular form.

`U.S. Patent No. 8,441,438 – Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge
`
`Claim 15
`The method for obtaining a resulting deviation of a 3D pointing device of claim 14, further comprises the step of outputting the updated state of
`the six-axis motion sensor module to the previous state of the six-axis motion sensor module; and wherein said resultant angles of the resulting
`deviation includes yaw, pitch and roll angles about each of three orthogonal coordinate axes of the spatial pointer reference frame.
`For example, Android’s source code discloses an iterative process for updating device motion. The updated state x0 output at time T-
`1 becomes an input of the previous state at time T and the “state” is iteratively updated.
