The hidden story of your phone's gyroscope

These gyroscope puns are really making my head spin

Yeah, it really tilted me

what is puns?.

[@Ash-dk7kn]

Good report, just few notes: 1) Gyroscopes in your phone are not comparable in performance by any mean to that launched to spaces even in early days 2) Wineglass gyroscope is a mechanical gyroscope (IT HAS MOVING PARTS). 3)Wineglass gyroscope is still in research phase. It didn't outperform the optical gyroscope which dominated the aerospace application regime for many decades.

[@cspahn3221]

thanks man

[@AndreeaCe]

But damn...the fitness bracelets and the almost end tech smartphones. I mean HTC had it around 2008 or so pretty good. And then are the ones with health tracking alike fitness bracelets. Of course aren't the same as the space ships ones. Windows pocket pc be like: weeeeeeeeeeeeeee we're 1st. Gotcha;))

[@StephanBuchin]

From what I know, the concept dates back to the 19th century and is inspired by the singing wine glass experiments. The wineglass gyro is a type of Hemispheric Resonator Gyroscope (HRG) that has now been replaced by the mushroom design. After decades of development, HRGs are fully functional and have been used since 2004 in satellites, in planetary exploration probes, for strategic accuracy systems, for borehole exploration, etc, counting millions of hours of flawless working. Although it is based on the observation of the movement of a wave controlled by a vibrating crystal, there are no moving parts like rotating masses in this type of gyro.

You should do same video for all sensors for phones

[@lerico536]

"rockets to pockets" Brilliant!

[@adityanarayansreejith9362]

The only thing I knew about gyroscope was that it would help me scope well in pubg and COD and it's great for VR stuffs but never knew its origin!

[@drewoer]

She says science fiction right as space pops up, based CNET

[@Shubhyduby]

Very well made appreciate it

[@georgioarmania2526]

A lot of background and hard work during Covid shelter in place. Very educational. A must watch for all and especially for lovers of science, which should be all of us. It should encourage students to study science and physics in particular. Great job as always from the best presenter on CNET.

[@juandiegosc]

Very interesting and informative video. Great videos from Lexy as always

[@yash1152]

0:21 "but it's not just space and ... " ?? what was said next? the captions dont make any sense 3:38 oh, the captions are correct then. but i still dont get the full story. what does mile high club mean?

[@MN-pu6qx]

An outstanding and incredibly informative video. Thanks.

[@comment.highlighted]

Great information. I remember buying a Gyroscope, as a kid, and was intrigued in how it worked. Thank you very much! 🙂

[@AyushKumar-mp3ro]

Really insightful. Loved it.

[@Zain0_0]

This girl is so good at explaining

[@UltimaDragonair]

They're good for VR tbh, especially now that we're in lockdown and maybe you'll miss being in a roller coaster, yeah thank you gyroscope for being with us. 😂

[@ihtesham_emon]

It's amazing that they changed the Title and the thumbnail of the video overnight 😄

[@TheJonathanExp]

Its all based on analytics every big channel does this. If a video isn't hitting view targets they'll change thumbnail and title to draw us in. Its a complicated art to get the combination right

[@georgioarmania2526]

Happy to see you included mario, without doubt the best entertaining video game ever. suitable for all. Simply the best.

[@buttermashpotatoes4617]

wow cnet, putting out an informative, concise, entertaining video

[@jasone4110]

Fascinating stuff!

[@bonnybabu6443]

Great video Lexy! Very informative. Never knew the gyroscope had these many applications!! 🙌

[@jvke.p]

awww man. great video. only note... the gyroscope has nothing to do with the leveling of your horizon in a photo you've taken.

[@decryptingelectrons]

5:16 what kinda stock footage is this

[@yash1152]

7:28 is gyro used in Maps Navigation systems on phone too??? or is that just done via accelerometer?

[@simple5907]

at 1:15 wheel start rotating in the direction perpendicular to gravity because of precession of gyroscope, gyro axis will move in direction perpendicular to the direction of applied force.

[@VariantAEC]

The PS3 Six Axis controller came out the same year with the launch of the system. The reason PlayStation and Nintendo introduced motion controls was because they were sued for using vibration motors in their previous controllers by a company called Immersion. Immersion was reportedly spurred to sue PlayStation by Microsoft, but Immersion sued all three major console manufacturers for using the technology. Microsoft settled, and the Xbox 360 controller kept traditional vibration. PlayStation and Nintendo used motion to pick up the slack with Nintendo keeping vibration by using a different form-factor controller. PlayStation eventually switched to linear vibration actuators for PS5 controllers, which Nintendo first used in the Switch Joy-Con. Both manufacturers retained gyroscope controls with vibration.

THANK YOU CNET

Great video! Thanks a lot.

I wasn't expecting for a CNET video on technology to be inappropriate for kids.

[@mahirshahariar9685]

Didn't explained what the heck is Gyroscope.

[@Novuh1]

Uh, did you even watch the video? 0:32

[@mahirshahariar9685]

@@Novuh1 That part was too quick for me. My bad actually they explained but I was out of focus.. I take back the blame..

[@basirulislam333]

Thanks a lot

[@TriPham-j3b]

Light gyroscope may work in the same but no movement part if closed chamber of light mounted on a shock absorbing by counting photon and shifting of light can detect change

[@mariacheebandidos7183]

1:40 seems people are going to be saying that for a long time to come.

“The James Webb telescope is going to help us find the first galaxies”... 🤣 maybe James Webb telescope has been delayed before Edwin Hubble was born 😔

[@andyabajo]

Lol

[@DMOTAMNB]

What? It can look into deeper space and can find therefore older galaxies then Hubble. "... to help us find the first galaxies” ≠ "... help us to be the first to find galaxies"

[@sibbystiggy5236]

My Sony Ericsson W910i had a gyroscope and it came out even before the iPhone 3.... EXPLAIN plz

[@CompraRightNJ]

Fantastic!

[@Arya_amsha]

Why can't we just use water?

[@wanderlust9871]

Lovely video!

[@commiezombie2477]

8:20 She said James Webb to launch 2021 😂🤣😂

[@yash1152]

7:33 didnt know about that feature in insta 7:48 so, that uses the gyro of the phone? i thought that it was within camera itself.

[@GhostScout42]

1st auto pilot in 1916. in 2001 they definitely did not remotely take control of those planes....

Thank you for teaching my 8 y/o what the mile high club is. /s

[@stephenjacks8196]

Phone gyroscopes are NOT. Phones use "accelerometer". Mechanical gyroscopes wear out and higher error. Military gyroscopes have lasers going in opposite directions rather than a spinning disk (based on doppler effect). You can fool the phone accelerometers by moving the phone slowly.

So apple made the phone with the first built in gyroscope But who put the first gyroscope in a watch?

I totally agree I have 10plus as well for 1 yr! Everyone knows I have it, i encased whole phone in clear skin and has 1 case on it. Was thinking of upgrading but instead I took off the case and skin and everyones like whoaaa?!, new phone? 😂 I say yep... NOTE 10 PLUS.

They aren't hidden we use them all the time. This is why playing games can be informative since Gyroscopes give precise controls (Unless it's a Gyroscope from a cheap phone).

[@pritim2009]

this clip is-NOT about how micro-gyrscope works [thumbs down]

[@BenFoilHat]

One of the greatest proofs to a flat earth is the gyroscope. If you travel a straight level path as indicated on the gyroscope, you would eventually gain altitude if the earth was a ball. This does not happen. Also the “stunning images of space” are CGI. Cool cartoons!
