MakerBot mBot Ranger, Manual, Page: 7 / 24

Ranger's on-board gyro sensor is a motion processing module. It measures the angular rate and the accelera-
tion information of your robot. Based on MPU-6050, this gyro sensor combines a 3-axis gyroscope, 3-axis
accelerometer, and a Digital Motion Processor™ (DMP) capable of processing complex 9-axis Motion Fusion
algorithms. It can be used together with encoder motor to build a self-balance car.
