This was an algorithm I had to come up with in order to use it for my RealSunAR Unity plugin update (Version 2.00).

When you try to get average between 2 angles, one valued 355 and one valued 5 instead of getting a result of 0 it would output (355 + 5) / 2 = 180

We need to swift/offset the majority of the values to the 180 part of a circle

1. Divide the circle into 8 90-degree overlapping sections and count how many values we got in each one
2. Offset the values according to where most values are found under step 1
3. Sort the values in order to remove peak values to get rid of false peak readings
4. Remove the highest and lowest 20% of the values
5. Find the average of the remaining values
6. Undo the offset we did in step 2

Just copy all files into your Assets folder a new project (I created this using Unity 2018.4.0 but should work in all versions). Go to the Assets/Angle Smoothing folder and open the Angle Smoothing scene

Press play!

• As you see I already have sample values in the Angle Smoothing gameobject under it's tab named "Original"
• The Game window shows a graphic representation of the process
• The red values represent the original values
• The green+blue values represent the offset values
• The blue are the remaining after the removal of peak values
• Finaly the white shows the solution after it's been swifted back to it's place
• You can see the results in the console and also the mid steps on the inspector of Angle Smoothing as indexes!
