Title: Reading absolute angle?
Post by: UART.io on March 26, 2016, 09:09:23 PM
Say I had an R/C car and wanted to sense the wheelie and measure the angle of the wheelie...What would I need to use?  I currently have a 3-axis gyro(L3GD20H) from Adafruit, but it only reads movement. Do i need both a gyro and an accelerometer to read the absolute angle?
