ODROID-A tablet for Developers

o-0

could someone explain the 9-axis sensor?
I get 6 axis: x (left-right strafe), y (forward-backward), z (up-down strafe), roll (clockwise-counterclockwise), pitch (tail up/down), yaw (right-left turning)
what might the other 3 be?
3-axis gyro, 3-axis accelerometer, and 3-axis magneto-resistive sensor (i.e. compass).

thats a common misconception that those three 3-axis sensors add up to nine. but it doesn't. if its an actual 9 axis it would be what i said earlier.
Weird, because that was all I got when I searched for 9-axis sensors... the magneto-resistive sensor.
Someone at marketing probably realized they could call a compass 3 more axes, is what I'm thinking :D
