A rate gyro is a type of gyroscope, which rather than indicating direction, indicates the rate of change of angle with time. If a gyro has only one gimbal ring, with consequently only one plane of freedom, it can be adapted for use as a rate gyro to measure a rate of angular movement. Rate gyros are used in rate integrating gyroscopes, and in ...
In a rate integrating gyroscope, the gyroscope is turned at a steady rate about its input axis and a torque is applied to the spin axis. This causes the gyroscope to precess about the output axis. The rate indicating gyroscope consists of a damping fluid between the float assembly can and the outer casing.
A rate sensor is a sensor that measures a rate (or rate of change). It may refer to: Angular rate sensor. Rate gyro; Yaw-rate sensor; Heart rate sensor; Breath rate sensor; Oxygen transmission rate sensors; Moisture vapor transmission rate sensors

The HRG, unlike optical gyros (fibre-optic gyroscope and ring laser gyroscope), has inertial memory: if the power is lost for a short period of time (typically a few seconds), the sensitive element continues to integrate the input motion (angular rate) so that when the power returns, the HRG signals the angle turned while power was off.
While the current 0.03% dividend yield might seem insignificant, the company's blistering 16.3% dividend growth rate over the prior five years and minimal 1.11% payout ratio signal substantial ...
Diagram of a gyro wheel. Reaction arrows about the output axis (blue) correspond to forces applied about the input axis (green), and vice versa. A gyroscope is an instrument, consisting of a wheel mounted into two or three gimbals providing pivoted supports, for allowing the wheel to rotate about a single axis. A set of three gimbals, one ...
In “The Flip Side of Fear”, we look at some common phobias, like sharks and flying, but also bats, germs and strangers. We tried to identify the origin of these fears and why they continue to exist when logic tells us they shouldn’t.
