The big mathematical challenge for flying robots is making them move in six dimensions: x, y, z, pitch, yaw and roll. We create 3-D obstacle courses in the lab - windows, doors, hula-hoops taped to posts - and ask the robots to fly through. It looks like a Harry Potter Quidditch match.

Hollywood is a perpetual summerland, a temperate, godless yaw where the very word 'season' has been co-opted by television executives. There are few harbingers of winter here.

I want to do a character in a one-woman show who's a yoga teacher from the Bronx. I could do the best accent: 'Raise yaw ahms up! Reach faw da sky!

Yaw is commonly used in aviation, navigation, or driving contexts, not in everyday conversation.

Technical Use

Yaw implies movement from side to side while advancing; it doesn't mean reversing or spinning on the spot.

Directional Aspect

In vehicles, 'yaw control' refers to systems that help maintain stability and prevent excessive yaw.

Control Mechanisms

Yaw can be quantified in degrees or rate, providing precise measurements rather than general observations.

Measuring Yaw

When experiencing yaw, you may feel lateral movement, sometimes accompanied by an uneasy feeling.

 got this poly ball cut at the end of it god forbid he does take it all you know the ball will kind of suspend and if we broke them off the rod when I won't still have to probably will have a visual on hopefully as I take it down I'm captain TJ yaw and that's how we like to rig the harpoons aboard the hot tuna

 This is sort of incredible. But actually it's quite beautiful, when you take a picture of it. And it's better than that, it -- just in the slide -- maneuvers in mid-air. And the way it does it, is it takes its tail and it swings it one way to yaw left, and it swings its other way to yaw right.

 built a clock that could keep accurate time at sea. The timepiece that could maintain accurate time while on a pitching, yawing deck in harsh conditions was necessary in order to know the time back in England. There was one catch since such a timepiece was handmade, it was very expensive.

 with the help of these flying machines called quadrocopters, or quads, for short. Quads have been around for a long time. They're so popular these days because they're mechanically simple. By controlling the speeds of these four propellers, these machines can roll, pitch, yaw,

 if you increase the speed of rotor three and decrease the speed of rotor one, then the robot pitches forward. And then finally, if you spin opposite pairs of rotors faster than the other pair, then the robot yaws about the vertical axis. So an on-board processor

 This turning process is called yawing, and older windmills achieved it through manual monitoring. Today, wind sensors and computer systems automatically adjust the blades with expert precision to capture as much energy as possible.
