- | ====APPLICATION==== | + | **Description** |
+ | The GY-521 contains both a 3-Axis Gyroscope and a 3-Axis accelerometer allowing measurements of both independently, | ||
+ | **Specification** | ||
+ | Accelerometer ranges: ±2, ±4, ±8, ±16g | ||
+ | Gyroscope ranges: ± 250, 500, 1000, 2000 °/s | ||
+ | Voltage range: 3.3V - 5V (the module include a low drop-out voltage regulator) | ||
+ | This simple module contains everything required to interface to the Arduino and other controllers via I2C (use the Wire Arduino library) and give motion sensing information for 3 axes - X, Y and Z. | ||
+ | ====APPLICATION==== | ||
+ | The GY-521 can be used to measure the orientation of the device. It can sense motion including vertical and horizontal rotation. There are a lot of practical uses of gyroscope especially in aerospace. It can be used as a stability assistance device to make sure that a rocket, a spacecraft, or an aircraft maintains the correct orientation. | ||
