Children and dogs effortlessly orient themselves and control gymnastic movements. Some might think that this is as easy as “child’s play,” until they try to make a machine or robot duplicate the feat.

Students will apply their knowledge of physical science concepts to create a lunar lander game using Scratch. They will use Vernier force and acceleration sensors to understand forces and integrate ...

In this article we describe how MEMS inertial sensors, e.g., gyroscopes and accelerometers, can help someone or something to overcome spatial disorientation. We explain how external forces and ...
