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 more.

PASADENA, CA—Gyroscopes are devices that help vehicles, drones, and wearable and handheld electronic devices know their orientation in three-dimensional space. They are commonplace in just about ...

Electronic versions of gyroscopes are used in orbiting satellites and space telescopes, compasses, camera stabilization and many other things. Sometimes, multiple gyroscopes are used to achieve ...

These electronic gyroscopes are much smaller than the rotating, nested wheels that made up the first models, but they're not always as accurate as they could be.

Without a gyroscope, even the most skilled drone pilot wouldn’t have a chance of keeping one airborne. So that’s what these researchers have targeted.
