Gyroscopes are classified by the number of degrees of freedom that they possess, i.e., they are single-degree-of-freedom or two-degree-of-freedom. ... a gyroscope supported by one gimbal only has the position of its spin axis determined by one angle and is therefore called a single-degree-of-freedom gyroscope. A gyroscope supported by two gimbals has two degrees of freedom. These two categories are used almost exclusively in aerospace applications. 1, record 1, English, - two%2Ddegree%2Dof%2Dfreedom%20gyroscope

Degrés de liberté. Le carter du gyroscope peut être lié au bâti qui le supporte de deux façons : la liaison est telle qu'elle autorise un mouvement de rotation autour d'un seul axe, le gyroscope est dit à un degré de liberté; la liaison est telle qu'elle autorise deux mouvements de rotation autour de deux axes concourants, le gyroscope est dit à deux degrés de liberté. Le carter peut exécuter une rotation quelconque autour du point de concours des deux axes. 4, record 1, French, - gyroscope%20%C3%A0%20deux%20degr%C3%A9s%20de%20libert%C3%A9
