Re: Implementing a Kalman Filter for Gyro+Accelerometers
I've played with Kalman filtering a bit on the bot. Personally I think it could help quite a bit, as long as you get your RMS noise correctly. It would also have less lag than averaging.

As for temp compensation, doesn't that datasheet have the info for how temp effects the output? I don't know if you can change the sensitivity without resetting the accumulator however.
