Question by Paulius-Liekis · Jul 15, 2015 at 09:21 AM · input gyroscope compass gyro

What is Input.gyro.attitude exactly?

Could someone clarify what is Input.gyro.attitude exactly? The documentation is very vague.

Does it include compass direction, i.e. is it always oriented in the same direction or does it drift?
It seems to loose it's direction if I shake a device, although it gets the position back after a while?
Is it possible to get more accurate orientation of the device by merging sensors (gyro, compass, accelerometer) yourself? If so how?
