9-Axis IMU LESSON 8: Using Gyros for Measuring Rotational Velocity and Angle

You guys can help me out over at Patreon, and that will keep this high quality content coming:

In this lesson we show how we can approximate the pitch and roll of our sensor using the data coming from the gyros. Unlike the accelerometers, the gyros are not as susceptible to noise problems. The issue is, however, that the gyros are susceptible to long term drift.

I strongly suggest picking up an arduino nano, since it can plug directly into the breadboard, making a portable system more practical. You can pick one up here:
