Significance of the Asymmetry of the Haltere: A Microscale Vibratory Gyroscope
Nature has evolved a beautiful design for small-scale vibratory gyroscopes in the form of halteres located in the metathorax region of the dipteran flies that detect body rotations based on the Coriolis principle. The specific design of the haltere is in contrast to the existing MEMS vibratory gyros...
