  2. Vibrating structure gyroscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vibrating_structure_gyroscope

    Consider two proof masses vibrating in plane (as in the MEMS gyro) at frequency . The Coriolis effect induces an acceleration on the proof masses equal to a c = 2 ( Ω × v ) {\displaystyle a_{\mathrm {c} }=2(\Omega \times v)} , where v {\displaystyle v} is a velocity and Ω {\displaystyle \Omega } is an angular rate of rotation.

  4. Gyroscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gyroscope

    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 ...

  5. Reflector sight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflector_sight

    Reflector sights employ some form of "reflector" to allow the viewer to see the infinity image and the field of view at the same time, either by bouncing the image created by lens off a slanted glass plate, or by using a mostly clear curved glass reflector that images the reticle while the viewer looks through the reflector.

  6. Control moment gyroscope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_moment_gyroscope

    A control moment gyroscope (CMG) is an attitude control device generally used in spacecraft attitude control systems. A CMG consists of a spinning rotor and one or more motorized gimbals that tilt the rotor’s angular momentum.

  7. Gyro gunsight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gyro_gunsight

    A gyro gunsight (G.G.S.) is a modification of the non-magnifying reflector sight in which target lead (the amount of aim-off in front of a moving target) and bullet drop are calculated automatically. The first examples were developed in Britain just before the Second World War for use during aerial combat , and more advanced models were common ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piping_and_instrumentation...

    Piping and instrumentation diagram of pump with storage tank. Symbols according to EN ISO 10628 and EN 62424. A more complex example of a P&ID. A piping and instrumentation diagram (P&ID) is defined as follows: A diagram which shows the interconnection of process equipment and the instrumentation used to control the process.

  9. Torpedo Data Computer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torpedo_Data_Computer

    The problem of computing the gyro angle setting is a trigonometry problem that is simplified by first considering the calculation of the deflection angle, which ignores torpedo ballistics and parallax. [44] For small gyro angles, θ Gyro ≈ θ Bearing − θ Deflection. A direct application of the law of sines to Figure 3 produces Equation 1.
