Hi all,
I'm a Civil Engineer by profession and literally have no clue about electronics/computing! I was wondering if you could help me out with a random question that I had.
What devices are needed to detect movement vertically and horizontally in a digital device, i.e a digital watch?
For example, an apple watch... if you raise it to your ear, it detects movement... Is this what gyroscopes are used for?
Would like a bit more explanation to this topic.
Thank you (sorry for being so vague!)
