Can you spin ? No problem, you'll say, but did you ever try to spin in two dimensions at the same time ? Measure angular velocity in two dimensions with this sensor.
Application examples
- Make a new game controller, eg. use it with a Wi-microDig inside a rolling object and create weird sounds.
- Stabilise any rotating object by measuring whether there is any angular velocity.
