Tronics Microsystems, a TDK company, has upgraded its GYPRO4000 product line, which consists of tactical-grade digital MEMS gyroscopes. As part of this product line, Tronics highlighted the GYPRO4300 ...

By using MEMS technology to fabricate a core element of an optical-fiber gyro, a research team built and tested an extremely sensitive unit that’s also compact and rugged.

The rotating-mass gyroscope, which lies at the heart of inertial measurement units (IMUs), has served very successfully from the 1930s to the 1970s, guiding astronauts, spacecraft, missiles, and ...

In addition to the new gyroscope’s potential for improved sensitivity relative to MEMS gyroscopes, such a system would have no moving parts and would be more immune to vibrations and shocks ...
