Modern Robotics Integrating Gyro Sensor Reads rate of rotation around the X, Y and Z axes Standard 4 Pin Connector: 4 Pin I2C Port Mounting Holes: 24x24mm / Wire Length: 25cm Power: 5VDC 20mA max The Modern Robotics 3 Axis Integrating Gyro Sensor reads rate of rotation around the X, Y and Z axes. The sensor also calculates a heading based on movement around the Z axis. The heading value is great for navigation and shows the current heading in degrees from 0 - 359 from a point where the heading value was reset to zero. The heading is calculated in the sensor by the onboard microcontroller which reads the gyro sensor Z axis output approximately 760 times per second. Performing the heading calculations within the sensor provides much greater accuracy than can be achieved if the calculation was done by the host. The heading value can be reset to zero at any time.
