Hello, mobile phones usually show the point of the compass, when people are on the move (estimation of a vector from gps track). The API says, that android is also able to get the point of the compass. How is this done? Is this done by software (estimating the vector) or has the G1 an build-in magnetic hardware compass? If not, does anyone know, if it is possible to connect a magnetic compass via USB or bluetooth?
I am interested in the orientation of the phone in 3D space, while the user is standing still. Does anyone know, how wikitude (http:// www.youtube.com/watch?v=8EA8xlicmT8) does this?
