Hello,
This has been a puzzlement for me for a while now. I have tried to google it to no avail. Somebody must know the answer so that is why I thought I will throw the question out on the floor here in the hopes somebody knows.
Ok, so when you rotate your iPhone or Android phone the picture follow the flip to keep the picture or app in a proper viewing position.
Similar things cause Radio Control Planes and Drones to know which way is up and automatically adjust to maintain control.
Yes, I know that it is possible and it works quite well to perform this bit of "magic".
THE QUESTION IS "What technology makes it happen??"
I want to say there is a ball of mercury floating in a IC Chip full of copper pins in a circle that respond to the mercury conducting current or electrons and some software reading these pins and telling the picture to roll or the plane or drone to change direction.
Well that makes sense but I know it is potentially wrong!!
So what kind of techno device does the work??
I can't imagine that it is atmospheric pressure.................
Ok, so anyone here have a clue or a hint or maybe a SOLID ANSWER??
Oh, if it is a Deep Dark Secret that can't be revealed due to serious legal ramifications then just say so. I might end my quest!! :-)
Ok, I now open the question to the floor!!
Thanks,
Les
