Hi, Here are the answers below, based on current plan and visibility. How do you intend to integrate with the location stack? This will not go into the location stack. The code to obtain new sensor data obtained through fusion such as orientation, linear acceleration, gravity, altitude, pedometer... would be available as individual virtual sensor plugin. The sensor plugins (for both hardware and virtual sensors) will be part of the sensor framework. Applications can register for specific sensor events exposed by the sensor framework API to get access to the virtual sensor data.
Is this for phones/tablets/cars/fridges/etc? It could be used for any of these devices provided they include the sensor framework and also the device should support underlying hardware sensors/drivers needed for implementation of the virtual sensors. Do you plan to use Kalman filtering as the general case and PDR for the special case or only Kalman? Currently the plan is to use Kalman filter as a common code or plugin, for all virtual sensor plugins (to be supported in sensor framework) that may need its use for generating new sensor data. PDR or other navigation systems would be part of the application layer, can register and use the orientation, pedometer... data which are readily available from the sensor framework. There are different Kalman filter implementations available (simple ones which work well for floating point processing, more complex ones that may be needed for stability in case of fixed point processing). The kalman filter implementation would be decided as implementation progresses.
