Abstract
The invention discloses a method and a module for measuring rotation and a portable apparatus comprising said module. The module of the present invention is adapted for measuring rotation of a target, and the module includes a first sensor, a second sensor and a processor. The first sensor is disposed at a first location of the target, for sensing a first centripetal acceleration and a first tangential acceleration when the target is rotated. The second sensor is disposed at a second location of the target, for sensing a second centripetal acceleration and a second tangential acceleration when the target is rotated. The processor is coupled to the first sensor and the second sensor, for receiving the first centripetal acceleration and the first tangential acceleration from the first sensor, receiving the second centripetal acceleration and the second tangential acceleration from the second sensor, and calculating the rotation angle of the target accordingly.
