Gyroscope
@ -73,13 +75,20 @@ Gyroscope
- Precisely: orientation can be computed from the angular rate that is detected by the gyroscope, expressed in rad/s [deg/s] on 3 axis.
- Traditional gyroscopes use the e!ect of angular momentum

- MEMS (microelectromechanical system) gyro
- Used in most smartphones or mobile/embedded devices
- Use the displacement of vibrating proof mass to compute orientation (Coriolis effect)

Problem:
- The gyroscope gives us angular rate with a unit of rad/s [deg/s]
