Gyroscope
A gyro sensor measures angular velocity. It is a sensor that reports, as a number, the angle an object has rotated about one axis per unit time.
A gyroscope is a device for measuring or maintaining orientation, based on the principles of angular momentum. A gyroscope is an instrument used to measure or maintain orientation, based on the law of conservation of angular momentum (Angular momentum).
For ways to represent rotation angles, see Euler angles. For the physics concepts behind the gyroscope, see here.
