Sensor Motion Sync Technology: Smoothing vs Instantaneous Latency Tradeoff: Edge Cases, Failure Modes, and Root-Cause Debugging

[Evan Phillips]

I’ve been chasing sub-pixel tracking consistency across different polling setups, and the tension between smoothing and raw latency keeps costing me fast flicks. When a sensor buffers motion samples between USB frame intervals, where do you actually draw the line between jitter reduction and input lag accumulation? Specifically, how do you debug cases where interpolation is masking sub-surface tracking errors that only surface on textured mousepads? I keep seeing smooth tracking in the lab fall
