There are an increasing number of applications that have a need to gather data from sensors located in very high temperature environments. In recent years there has been considerable progress in ...

MEMS gyroscopes are self-contained rotation sensors that can be integrated with linear accelerometers to make single-chip inertial measurement units (IMUs) 1–3. Their small size and low cost have made ...

High-precision space-based gyroscopes are important in space science research and space engineering applications. In fundamental physics research, they can be used to test the general relativity ...

In MEMS technology development, it is always exciting to see the next technology frontier, the border of the known and the unknown. Talent and hard work (along with ingenuity) can move this frontier ...

A new detection scheme that may lead to the world's smallest gyroscope has been uncovered by scientists. More than creative learning toys, gyroscopes are indispensable components in a number of ...

A new study investigates the effects of small but finite inertia on the propulsion of micro and nano-scale swimming machines. Scale plays a major role in locomotion. Swimming microorganisms, such as ...

Inertial Labs has released the TAG-304, a three-axis gyroscope solution designed to stabilize platforms where low latency, wide bandwidth, high data rate, and low noise are required. The TAG-304 ...

Even at sea, GPS signals are increasingly at risk of being disrupted by electronic warfare measures. To combat the problem, the Navy is upgrading its inertial gyrocompass navigation system for surface ...
