CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – Mission controllers have turned off one of four spinning gyroscopes that keep the international space station properly positioned in space because it was vibrating excessively.

This application note gives an overview of different control mechanisms for MEMS Coriolis Vibratory Gyroscopes (CVG) and how they are implemented using the commercial off-the-shelf HF2LI Lock-in ...

Entomologists and mechanical engineers ordinarily have little to do with one another. The first study bugs; the second design machinery. But last week the Sperry Gyroscope Co., designers of highbrow ...

The ADXRS649 is a complete angular rate sensor (gyroscope) that uses the Analog Devices, Inc., patented high volume BiMOS surface-micromachining process to make a complete gyro on one chip. An ...

Qualtré, Inc introduced today the QGYR110Hx BAW MEMS gyroscopes, single-axis angular rate (rotational) sensors designed for harsh environments. Based on Qualtré’s patented Bulk Acoustic Wave (BAW) ...

Many important flight instruments are built around spinning gyroscopes, whose “rigidity in space” makes them try to keep pointing in a fixed direction. An instrument hitched to one or more of these ...

Advanced Sensors & Calibration (ASC) has announced a new range of gyroscopes (gyros) for industrial applications. ASC 271 and 273 series MEMS gyros are intended for pointing and navigation ...

ANN ARBOR--A small, inexpensive and highly accurate gyroscope, developed at the University of Michigan, could help drones and autonomous cars stay on track without a GPS signal. "Our gyroscope is ...
