Week 10 Semester 2

Gyroscope

In this week, I will explain about the gyroscope. Gyroscope is use in this quad copter because to get easily the orientation of a non-moving object (pitch and roll), a 3-axis accelerometer can be used. For a static object, it gives the value of the gravity field on 3 axes, therefore its direction. The most common used sensor in quad copter control boards is the gyroscope sensor. It gives the angular rate around the 3 axes of space.
