Attitude Sensor. The TSS POS/MV (Position and Orientation Systems for Marine Vessels) is an inertial navigation system delivering full 6 degree-of-freedom position and orientation systems for ships. It combines data from an inertial unit made up of three acceleration meters and three gyrolasers (fibre optic gyroscopes) and two GPS antennas. It delivers the following data with a sampling frequency of 1-200 Hz: roll and pitch (accurate to 0.02°); heave (accurate to 5% amplitude); true heading (accurate to 0.1°). 1, record 1, English, - attitude%20sensor

Des gyroscopes mécaniques à suspension dynamique, très utilisés dans les centrales à cardans, peuvent également être montés sur une centrale à composants liés, de performances plus modestes, comme une centrale d'attitude. Il s'agit d'instruments électromécaniques à masse tournante entraînée en rotation par un moteur électrique au travers d'un joint flexible qui laisse au rotor toute liberté angulaire dans les directions perpendiculaires à l'axe de rotation. 5, record 1, French, - centrale%20d%27attitude

Centrales d'attitude. La centrale TSS POS/MV (Position and Orientation Systems for Marine Vessels) désigne un système de navigation inertielle qui procure des solutions d'orientation et de positionnement à six degrés de liberté pour les navires. Elle combine les informations provenant d'une centrale inertielle constituée de trois accéléromètres et trois gyrolasers (gyroscopes à fibres optiques) et de deux antennes GPS. Elle délivre avec une fréquence d'échantillonnage 1-200 Hz les informations suivantes : roulis et tangage (précision 0.02°); pilonnement (précision 5 % de l'amplitude); cap (précision 0.1°). 6, record 1, French, - centrale%20d%27attitude
