what is gyroscope in mobile

A gyroscope in a mobile phone is a sensor that helps the accelerometer understand the orientation of the phone. It works by using a tiny vibrating plate on a chip that gets pushed around by the Coriolis forces that affect objects in motion when they rotate. The gyroscope helps the phone determine its orientation and can be used for various purposes, such as autorotation of the screen and view on the screen whenever a phone is rotated. It can also enable several actions based on a users motions, such as shaking the phone to undo written content or to answer or open a website by presenting commands such as rotating or gently shaking the phone 2 to 3 times. The gyroscope in a smartphone provides a GUI that enables a user to select menus by tilting the phone. The gyroscope is one of the many sensors in a smartphone that enables various features, such as motion-based games, image stabilization, and toggling between vertical and horizontal orientations.
