Back in the old days, finding out your location on Earth was a pretty involved endeavor. You had to look at stars, use fancy gimballed equipment to track your motion, or simply be able to track your ...

New technology poised to enable more precise and compact navigation systems for airplanes, unmanned vehicles and for land and marine navigation WASHINGTON -- Researchers have taken an important new ...

Splatoon is a great fresh take on the shooter genre, but its gyroscope controls are tough to master. I actually turned the gyroscope controls off after the first hour — my brain, so used to the ...

Dr. Mario Paniccia, CEO and co-founder of Anello Photonics, discusses the scope of applications in optical gyroscope technology, specifically when combined with an AI-based sensor fusion engine. The ...

Two researchers from UC Davis have successfully created a proof-of-concept keylogger using a smartphone’s built-in gyroscope. TouchLogger was written for Android, but there is no reason the same ...

Gyroscope designs used in inertial navigation systems (INS) fall into three basic groups: the classic spinning-rotor mechanical gyro (still in use in specialized situations due to its superior ...

A security researcher known for devising inventive ways to siphon data from computers that are disconnected from the internet has found a new exploit able to exfiltrate data to a nearby smartphone.

CEA-Leti and Politecnico di Milano (POLIMI) have developed the world’s smallest MEMS gyroscope. Based on a nano-resistive sensing technology, the gyroscope enables a navigation-grade performance with ...

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 ...
