Gyroscope Sensor
The gyroscope (gyro) sensor measures the angular velocity, or rate of rotation, about three axes. When mounted, it
provides 3-D attitude (pitch, roll, and yaw). Similar to the ambient light sensor, the gyro is a PMOD. It can communicate
angular velocity using either the SPI or I2C protocol, but in this kit we only use the I2C protocol. Per the I2C protocol, the
gyro pinout includes a serial data (SDA), serial clock (SCL), two interrupts, power, and ground.

Gyroscope Sensor Input Port
The gyroscope sensor input port of the motor controller board is a direct breakout of the myRIO I2C and digital input pins.
