Toronto-gauge railways are tram and rapid transit lines built to Toronto gauge, a broad gauge of 4 ft 10 + 7 ⁄ 8 in (1,495 mm). This is 2 + 3 ⁄ 8 in (60 mm) wider than standard gauge of 4 ft 8 + 1 ⁄ 2 in ( 1,435 mm ) which is by far the most common track gauge in Canada .
Inertial navigation unit of French IRBM S3 IMUs work, in part, by detecting changes in pitch, roll, and yaw. An inertial measurement unit works by detecting linear acceleration using one or more accelerometers and rotational rate using one or more gyroscopes. [3] Some also include a magnetometer which is commonly used as a heading reference.

An inertial navigation system (INS; also inertial guidance system, inertial instrument) is a navigation device that uses motion sensors (accelerometers), rotation sensors and a computer to continuously calculate by dead reckoning the position, the orientation, and the velocity (direction and speed of movement) of a moving object without the ...

An inertial reference unit (IRU) is a type of inertial sensor which uses gyroscopes (electromechanical, ring laser gyro or MEMS) and accelerometers (electromechanical or MEMS) to determine a moving aircraft’s or spacecraft’s change in rotational attitude (angular orientation relative to some reference frame) and translational position (typically latitude, longitude and altitude) over a ...

20:26, 4 September 2007 (UTC) The above are correct. An IMU refers to the sensors (typically accels and gyros, hence Inertial Measurement Unit). An INS refers to compilation of many sensors (One or more IMUs, GPS receiver, etc.) and the accompanying software to generate estimated acceleration, velocity, and position (hence Inertial Navigation System).
