A new detection scheme that may lead to the world's smallest gyroscope has been uncovered by scientists. More than creative learning toys, gyroscopes are indispensable components in a number of ...

Laser gyroscopes represent a pivotal technology in measuring Earth’s rotation with unmatched precision, utilising the Sagnac effect to detect minuscule angular variations. These instruments, often ...

Researchers have taken an important new step in advancing the performance of resonator fiber optic gyroscopes, a type of fiber optic sensor that senses rotation using only light. Because gyroscopes ...
