Angle Calculation

AI Thread Summary

To calculate the yaw angle for a car's turning movement, various sensors can be utilized, with IMUs (Inertial Measurement Units) being a popular choice due to their accuracy in measuring angular velocity and orientation. Other options include gyroscopes and magnetometers, which can also provide reliable data for determining the yaw angle. The discussion emphasizes the importance of understanding the specific application to recommend the most suitable sensor. Participants encourage sharing more details about the project to provide tailored advice. Selecting the right sensor is crucial for accurately measuring vehicle dynamics.

in our project, need to calculate the turn angle of car by placing some sensor on it.

Thread 'Where is my curb stop?'

My water meter is submerged under water for about 95% of the year. Today I took a photograph of the inside of my water meter box because today is one of the rare days that my water meter is not submerged in water. Here is the photograph that I took of my water meter with the cover on: Here is a photograph I took of my water meter with the cover off: I edited the photograph to draw a red circle around a knob on my water meter. Is that knob that I drew a red circle around my meter...

Thread 'Questions about the Tesla turbine'

Hi all, i have some questions about the tesla turbine: is a tesla turbine more efficient than a steam engine or a stirling engine ? about the discs of the tesla turbine warping because of the high speed rotations; does running the engine on a lower speed solve that or will the discs warp anyway after time ? what is the difference in efficiency between the tesla turbine running at high speed and running it at a lower speed ( as fast as possible but low enough to not warp de discs) and: i...
