+ * Create an object capable of calibrating the compass.
+ *
+ * The algorithm uses an accelerometer to ensure that a broad range of sample data has been gathered
+ * from the compass module, then performs a least mean squares optimisation of the
+ * results to determine the calibration data for the compass.
+ *
+ * The LED matrix display is used to provide feedback to the user on the gestures required.
+ *
+ * @param compass The compass instance to calibrate.
+ *
+ * @param accelerometer The accelerometer to gather contextual data from.
+ *
+ * @param display The LED matrix to display user feedback on.
