Vibratory gyroscope

Patent Granted A vibrating structure gyroscope, standardised by IEEE as Coriolis vibratory gyroscope (CVG),[1] is a wide group of gyroscope using solid-state resonators of different shapes that functions much like the halteres of an insect. The underlying physical principle is that a vibrating object tends to continue vibrating in the same plane as its support rotates. In the engineering literature, this type of device is also known as a Coriolis vibratory gyro because as the plane of oscillation is rotated, the response detected by the transducer results from the Coriolis term in its equations of motion ("Coriolis force").
