The first gyroscope was invented in 1852 by Leon Foucault (a traditional mechanical gyroscope of this general type is shown in Fig 1). Foucault thought that he could measure the rotation of the earth ...

July 15, 2014. Measurement Specialties now offers the Model 620 angular rate sensor that accurately measures angular velocity in test and measurement applications. The compact, MEMS-based angular rate ...

The KMX61G is the industry’s first highly accurate gyro emulator. The gyro emulator is a device used to measure the angular velocity, which allows you to determine its orientation. MEMS Gyro has ...

Much of the focus on the gyroscope feature Apple built into the iPhone 4 has fallen on what it means for mobile gaming. But at least one app developer thinks the gyroscope has potential beyond ...

Researchers built a prototype fiber optic gyroscope (pictured) for high resolution, real-time monitoring of ground rotations caused by earthquakes in an active volcanic area. The fibers are precisely ...

Italian scientists dip deep for laser experiments to measure Earth’s rotational effects at greatest ever sensitivity. GINGERino ring laser gyroscope at the underground labs of INFN in Gran Sasso, ...

Inertial navigation systems use information provided by accelerometers and gyroscopes to provide the position and orientation of an object relative to a predetermined origin point, orientation and ...
