Yaw Rate/Gyro Board?

[greenman100]

Some of you have expressed interest in a gyro/yaw rate board.

If we could find 10 people willing to buy, we'll send a board based on the LISY300AL out for manufacturing.

It'd be about $25. Post here if you'd want one.

I've been using a 75 deg/sec yaw sensor because I need the sensitivity. The guys that have inverted pendulum robots usually use one gyro and two accelerometers to determine the angle. The gyro provides quick reactions, and the accelerometers calibrate where vertical is, and eliminate the drift and bias that a gyro has. They get coupled with a Kalman filter. You might want to look into building a board with a single or dual axis gyro and a 2 or 3 axis accelerometer all on one board. Just an idea.
