Introduction

This page provides an in-depth exploration of the gyroscope feature and its integration into the firmware for supported devices. It highlights the technological advancements offered by gyroscopes, including their ability to measure and process both linear and rotational motion. The implementation of gyroscopes into firmware enhances crash detection, eco-driving scenarios, and driver behavior monitoring, providing detailed data critical for various industries such as insurance, transportation, agriculture, and heavy machinery. This page aims to provide comprehensive insights into the feature's functionality, configuration, and real-world applications.

What is a Gyroscope?

A gyroscope is a device that measures angular velocity, or the rate of rotation, around three perpendicular axes: Roll, Pitch, and Yaw. These measurements, expressed in degrees per second (or radians per second), enable the tracking of rotational motion in three-dimensional space. When paired with a 3-axis accelerometer, the combination forms a 6-axis inertial measurement unit (IMU), capable of capturing both linear and rotational movement.





















Gyroscopes are essential for applications requiring precise motion detection and orientation tracking. For example:

  • Rotation and Orientation: Gyroscopes detect rotational movements, providing data for scenarios involving vehicle spins, rolls, or tilts.
  • Crash Analysis: By integrating linear acceleration data (from accelerometers) with rotational data, gyroscopes enable a comprehensive understanding of crash mechanics, capturing the angle and orientation of a vehicle during impact.
  • Continuous Monitoring: With a high Output Data Rate (ODR) of up to 400 Hz, gyroscopes can record detailed motion changes, making them indispensable in crash detection, eco/green driving analysis, and advanced vehicle telematics systems.

Features that utilize Gyroscope

The integration of gyroscopes into firmware introduces a suite of advanced functionalities, significantly enhancing motion tracking and data analysis capabilities. Key features include:

  • 6-Axis Motion Tracking: The gyroscope combines rotational data (Roll, Pitch, Yaw) with linear data (X, Y, Z) from the accelerometer, both gyroscope and accelerometer data is available as I/O parameters: Roll , Pitch, Yaw and Axis X, Axis Y, Axis Z respectively.
  • High-Resolution Data Collection: The IMU ODR has been increased to 400 Hz, providing double the sampling rate of earlier implementations This ensures even the shortest movements are captured with high accuracy, benefiting crash detection and eco/green driving analytics.
  • Crash Trace Enhancements: Separate configurable durations for capturing data before and after crash events (up to a combined total of 20 seconds before + after crash event) allow for detailed reconstructions. These additionally include gyroscopic data on axis rotations.
  • Eco-Driving Scenario Improvements: By integrating gyroscope data, new parameter -"Total Angle Changed" during driving events allow for granular analysis of driver behavior, helping fleet managers optimize performance and safety.

This feature can be enabled, only when:

  1. Eco/Green driving feature is enabled
  2. Source is set as Accelerometer
  3. Advanced Eco Driving is enabled
  4. Eco driving total angle changes is enabled
  • Advanced Vehicle Stability Monitoring: For applications like heavy machinery or agriculture, gyroscopes monitor roll and pitch angles to ensure safe and stable operation.

Configuration Parameters

The gyroscope feature comes with several configurable parameters, enabling users to tailor its functionality to specific needs. Below is a detailed table:

Crash trace format explanation

When enabled with configuration, gyroscope data is enabled in the crash trace. Special record with AVL ID 1422 is used instead of standard crash trace AVL ID 259. Records generated after the crash will include standard data and trace data sent with these AVL IDs:

AVL ID Element Name Element Size Type Description

247 Crash Event Uint8 1 Byte Indicates the occurrence of a crash event. Not applicable Triggered during crash detection.
1422 Trace Data Variable Stream Includes accelerometer and gyroscope data for crash analysis. Axis X, Axis Y, Axis Z, Roll, Pitch, Yaw Specialized data collection during crash events.
AVL ID 1422 Data Structure
- Axis X Int16 2 Bytes X-axis angular data from gyroscope. Measured during crash event.
- Axis Y Int16 2 Bytes Y-axis angular data from gyroscope. Measured during crash event.
- Axis Z Int16 2 Bytes Z-axis angular data from gyroscope. Measured during crash event.
- Roll Int16 2 Bytes Roll angular rate data. Measured during crash event.
- Pitch Int16 2 Bytes Pitch angular rate data. Measured during crash event.

Use Cases

The gyroscope feature unlocks several practical applications, addressing needs across diverse industries:

  • Crash Event Reconstruction: By combining linear and rotational data, gyroscopes provide a detailed account of vehicle dynamics during crashes. This includes capturing rollovers, skids, and impact angles, offering unparalleled insights for insurance claims and accident analysis.
  • Driver Behavior Monitoring: Fleet managers can use gyroscope data to detect unsafe driving behaviors such as sharp cornering, drifting, or harsh braking, promoting safer driving practices.
  • Predictive Maintenance: Rotational data helps identify tire wear and suspension issues by tracking how vehicles handle during aggressive maneuvers, enabling preemptive repairs.

Industry-Specific Applications:

  • Insurance Telematics: Ensures accurate crash reconstructions with combined accelerometer and gyroscope data.
  • Heavy Machinery: Tracks machinery stability in hazardous environments, reducing risks of rollovers or tipping.
  • Rental and Leasing: Detects improper usage or reckless driving, minimizing wear and tear on vehicles.
