Certainly that looks like a possibility but, I think that the state of
the art approach would be a Kalman filter, that can be used to get the
best from both sensors and give back a more precise feedback. In
addition to this, if a decent model of the machine is available, kalman
filter would use it additionally to get an even improved feedback
(including velocity and acceleration if needed).

The ultimate all-in-one performance toolkit: Intel(R) Parallel Studio XE:
Pinpoint memory and threading errors before they happen.
Find and fix more than 250 security defects in the development cycle.
Locate bottlenecks in serial and parallel code that limit performance.
