Calibration : Gryo

The gyro readings, when the sensor is placed on a flat surface, do not seem to make a lot of sense to me. ( R board )

Here are a few samples:
x,y,z
0.0,0.18310546875,0.1220703125
-0.06103515625,0.244140625,0.1220703125
0.1220703125,0.1220703125,-0.244140625
-0.244140625,0.1220703125,0.244140625
-0.06103515625,0.30517578125,0.1220703125

Is it normal to see 0.3 and 0.2 at rest?

    Yes, that is expected behavior as gyros are inherently noisy and will accumulate drift, hence why people have developed sensor fusion / filtering algorithms to correct the data.

    So just to confirm, there is no way to even "calibrate" it to have the readings set to "zero"? I'd solely be relying on data processing to correct the data?
