Gyroscopes are perfect to damper short impulses of external forces but will eventually succumb if a constant force, like gravity, is applied. Once the axis of rotation of the mass aligns with the axis ...

The device - which uses hollow optical fibres - achieved 'world record measurement accuracy', according to researchers that developed it Chinese researchers say they have developed a "groundbreaking" ...

Gyroscope designs used in inertial navigation systems (INS) fall into three basic groups: the classic spinning-rotor mechanical gyro (still in use in specialized situations due to its superior ...
