While not an exact gyroscope sensor, there are the accelerometer and magnetometer:

Granted, it may not be exactly what you are seeking:

but the 'Acceleration Logger' app might suit your needs:

Exactly what task solution is being attempted?

no, i am just curious, because most companies nowadays implement gyroscope into their smartwatches, so i thought bangle.js also followed that trend too...and i looked at bangle.js promotional video where bangle.js were attached to the back of a cordless drill so i wondered whether it had an actual gyroscope or not.... ok, thx for the information :)
