Do note that this is a "system on a chip" that has multiple sensors in it plus the digital motion processing that does the heavy lifting to process the gyro/accelerometer data and turn it into something meaningful.

- Finally, as to temperature, this is an excellent question. The answer is "kind of". As noted above, we experienced a drift of approximately 1 degree (in the yaw, or rotation, dimension) when using the Digital Motion Processor's output.

The Digital Motion Processor (DMP) implements sophisticated algorithms (believed to be an Extended Kalman Filter) that fuse the accelerometer and gyroscope together.
Did Invensense finally publically release a description of the DMP and interface specs, or are you using what other people reverse engineered a while ago?
