**Pitch** is the angle deviation from horizontal of a straight line coming out of the front of the robot. **Roll** is the angle deviation from horizontal of a straight line going directly through the wheels. These are illustrated in the following figures:

**Note:** An accelerometer cannot measure **yaw** because Earth's gravity acts in the same direction as the Z-axis, which prevents the accelerometer from measuring rotation on the Z-axis. Instead, a different sensor called a **magnetometer** (i.e., digital compass) could be used to measure yaw by measuring an object's orientation relative to Earth's magnetic north pole.
