Tactical Grade Gyroscope
The CRH03 tactical-grade gyroscope from Silicon Sensing Systems Ltd, Plymouth, U.K., is a stand-alone, MEMS gyroscope that delivers exceptional bias instability, angle random walk, and low noise performance. It is used for a self-contained navigation solution developed to solve the growing issue, across many platform types, of effective navigation over extended periods in GNSS-denied or contested environments. The gyro will serve as an ultra-precise heading sensor, providing constant azimuth data.
