The VG400CA is a high performance, solid-state vertical gyro intended for airborne applications such as UAV control, avionics, and platform stabilization. This high reliability, strap-down inertial subsystem provides attitude measurement with static and dynamic accuracy comparable to traditional spinning mass vertical gyros. 1, record 1, English, - solid%2Dstate%20vertical%20gyro

Les gyroscopes vibrants représentent aujourd'hui une nouvelle et importante technologie inertielle, non seulement parce que, pour certains d'entre eux, ils on montré leur capacité à être très performants (on dit alors qu'ils sont de classe inertielle), mais que, surtout, dans les autres technologies dites «solid-state» [semiconducteurs] (gyroscopes laser et à fibre optique), les gyroscopes n'ont pas la même aptitude que les gyroscopes vibrants à être miniaturisés et fabriqués à des coûts faibles. 2, record 1, French, - gyroscope%20de%20verticale%20%C3%A0%20semi%2Dconducteur
