 The world isn't made out of Nerf, you will get scrapes and bruses, but you will get back up and continue on. If you watch out you can avoid the sharp edges.

The Gyro measures the angular velocity. Its range is +/-64deg/sec. That translates into 0.25 to 4.75VDC, which in turn gets translated into a BYTE. Therefore when the Gyro is still you get an output of 127. If it is going at 64deg/sec, it is 254, etc... As far as I’m aware of it the relationship between the rate of turn and the output is linear.
Some side notes: 64deg/sec is a pretty slow turning rate, because at maximum you can measure 1 revolution in 6 seconds. Also, many teams have suggested "filtering" the bumps in the output. You can do that mechanically (Put the gyro on a pad), electrically and electronically i.e. programming. Good luck! Eugene |
