Les domaines de mesure de ces appareils, appelés gyromètres, sont très différents, suivant les cas; [...] il y a lieu de distinguer entre les gyromètres de pilotage et les gyromètres de haute précision. Les premiers, peu encombrants, relativement bon marché, dont le rappel élastique est souvent dû à un ressort, et dont l'étendue de mesure peut être de quelques degrés à quelques centaines de degrés par seconde, sont utilisés pour le pilotage automatique des avions, des fusées, des navires. Les seconds sont des appareils à équipage mobile porté par flottaison, dont le rappel est obtenu par un asservissement électromécanique. L'étendue de mesure de ces gyromètres peut varier, suivant les cas, de quelques degrés par heure à quelques degrés par seconde. 1, record 1, French, - gyrom%C3%A8tre%20de%20pilotage
