public var rotationRate: Vector3;
public Vector3 rotationRate;

Description

Returns rotation rate as measured by the device's gyroscope.

The rotation rate is given as a Vector3 representing the speed of rotation around each of the three axes in radians per second. This is the value as it is reported by the gyroscope hardware - a more accurate measurement that has been processed to remove "bias" can be obtained with the rotationRateUnbiased property.
