Adafruit L3GD20H Triple-Axis Gyro Breakout Board - L3GD20/L3G4200 Upgrade

Key Features: Affordable triple-axis gyro Based around the latest gyro technology, the L3GD20H from STMicro Can be set to ±250, ±500, or ±2000 degree-per-second scale for a large range of sensitivity 3.3V regulator on the breakout board to power it from 5V A gyroscope is a type of sensor that can sense twisting and turning motions. Often paired with an accelerometer, you can use these to do 3D motion capture and inertial measurement (that is - you can tell how an object is moving!) As these sensors become more popular and easier to manufacture, the prices for them have dropped to the point where you can easily afford a triple-axis gyro! Only a decade ago, this space-tech sensor would have been hundreds of dollars.This breakout board is the upgrade to the L3G4200 with three full axes of sensing. There's also built in high and low pass sensing to make data processing easier. The chip supports both I2C and SPI so you can interface with any microcontroller easily. Since this chip is a 3.3V
