They are involved in helping with maintaining balance both when staying still and while in motion.
No. Semicircular canals are located in the vestibule of the ear and are membranous that contain receptor cells; semicircular ducts house dynamic equilibrium receptors and contain an enlarged region and a receptor region and that respond to angular motion.
The semicircular canals are responsible for dynamic equilibrium and more specifically angular acceleration. The anterior, posterior, and lateral semicircular ducts are the specific canals which detect rotational movements.
The inner ear contains receptors for the sense of equilibrium. These receptors are found in structures called the vestibular system, which helps us maintain balance and spatial orientation. The vestibular system provides information to the brain about head movements and position.
The senses for dynamic equilibrium are located in the inner ear, specifically in the vestibular system. This system includes the semicircular canals and otolith organs, which detect changes in head position and movement to help maintain balance and stability.

Semicircular Canals
The semicircular ducts are an organ of balance located in the inner ear.

They help to maintain balance of your body.
In the semicircular canals and in the vestibule of the ear.
semicircular canals
The semicircular canals are three loops of interconnected canals within the inner ear which are responsible for detecting angular acceleration. The three canals are the superior posterior and lateral canals. These canals meet at the common crus or the ampulla. Superior semicircular canal Posterior semicircular canal Lateral semicircular canalThe three canals meet at the common crus or the ampulla. The ampulla is a small pouch-like structure that contains a fluid known as the endolymph. The ampulla is located at the base of the semicircular canals and serves as a sensory organ for maintaining balance and equilibrium.
