== Measuring rotation == The second example uses the sensor to gather data as a pendulum swings. The procedure "Pendulum" will wait until the user presses the space bar. At this point the pendulum should be released and the readings from the sensor are stored to a disk file. Once the pendulum has come to rest the space bar is pressed and the readings are saved to disk. This file can then be used with a spreadsheet to produce results as in the figure. This example compares results from two pendulums of different length. === Procedure: Pendulum === [[File:Chart-Position-Sensor-Pendulum.svg|frameless|right]] FILE 1,"data" WAIT UNTIL GET = 32 PRINT "sampling" REPEAT STORE 1,POSITION UNTIL INKEY = 32 CLOSE 1 [[Category:Sensors]]
