So a gyroscope will indeed work then? How would I go about setting it up? How do I know if my car has an accelerometer? Do I need that with a gyroscope or would that be a separate system?

Thanks!
With a OBD2 to Bluetooth adapter, you don't need an USB OTG capable device. And generally if your phone has a gyroscope, it'll have an accelerometer, too. For just reading gyro/accelerometer data off your phone, you don't need an OBD2 adapter, that's only if you want to use your phone as a 'scan gauge', so to speak, with Torque.
