Vibrating structure gyroscope
(重定向自MEMS gyroscope)
A vibrating structure gyroscope, standardised by IEEE as Coriolis vibratory gyroscope (CVG), is a gyroscope that uses a vibrating structure to determine rate of rotation. A vibrating structure gyroscope functions much like the halteres of an insect.
The underlying physical principle is that a vibrating object tends to continue vibrating in the same plane even if its support rotates. The Coriolis effect causes the object to exert a force on its support, and by measuring this force the rate of rotation can be determined.
