Micromachined Gyroscope For Angle Measurements

Technology Benefits

Reduced size, weight and energy consumption Improved reliability and functionality Suitability for low cost, high volume production Sustains energy level and allows on-line compensation of manufacturing defects, thanks to a robust non linear feedback control architecture Allows multi-directional vibrations and does NOT interfere with the inertial Coriolis force, contrary to conventional vibratory type gyroscopes

Technology Application

Avionics systems Navigational equipment (ships, submarines, aircraft, spacecraft) Defense-specific applications

Detailed Technology Description

None
