        I have hade no experience with microaccelerometers yet.
Only pleasent reading.

        I do have some experience with fiber optic sensors, but
this does not include optical-gyros unfortunately.
In my opto-electronics classes we examined bend radius attenuation
and other optical-sensors like a liquid level monitor.
        Reading is the limit to my optical-gyros information. 
If one were to mount an optical-gyro on top of a persons head,
 fast angular readings changes could be metered.
