Gyroscope Test

A gyroscope is a tiny micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) inside your phone that measures the rate of rotation around three axes. While the accelerometer measures linear movement, the gyroscope accurately tracks how the phone is twisting and turning in 3D space.

Why the Gyroscope Matters

Gyroscopes are heavily used in mobile gaming (like aiming in PUBG Mobile or steering in racing games), 360-degree videos, and Augmented/Virtual Reality apps. If your VR view keeps drifting slowly to the side while the phone is completely still, your gyroscope likely needs calibration.

Alpha, Beta, and Gamma

The data from the gyroscope is presented in three angles. 'Alpha' is rotation around the Z-axis (like a compass). 'Beta' is the X-axis (tilting the top of the phone forward and backward). 'Gamma' is the Y-axis (tilting the phone side to side). Our 3D visualizer maps these raw values directly onto a digital model.
