Methods #

Modules.CoreMotion.Gyroscope.startGyroUpdates with no callback, needs to periodically
check the value returned by this method and process the gyroscope data.

Returns: CoreMotionGyroData

If a callback is passed to this method, it will be called whenever there is an update.
The frequency of these updates can be controlled using the
Modules.CoreMotion.setGyroUpdateInterval method. If no callback is passed,
the gyroscope data can be accessed using the Modules.CoreMotion.Gyroscope.getGyroData
method. To stop the delivery of events,
call the Modules.CoreMotion.Gyroscope.stopGyroUpdates method.
Note: It is recommended to set an update interval of at least 250ms before, to avoid receiving
too many callbacks at once.
