The yaw rate can be measured with accelerometers in the vertical axis.

Any device intended to measure the yaw rate is called a yaw rate sensor.

Yaw rate control is a system that maintains the yaw rate of a vehicle, for example a car, according to the values requested by the driver.

Such systems keep track of the position of the steering wheel and the "yaw rate," or rate at which the car is actually turning.

The system compares the yaw rate and the steering angle to make sure they match.

The angle between the vehicle's heading and vehicle actual movement direction is called slip angle, which is related to the yaw rate.

This acceleration is proportional to the product of yaw rate and the oscillatory velocity, which is maintained electronically at a constant value.

Dihedral effect is not caused by yaw rate, nor by the rate of sideslip change.

Assuming constant speed, there are only two state variables; and , which will be written more compactly as the yaw rate r.

This data is continuously fed into the Corvette's computer where the yaw rate is compared to the steering angle.
