Experimental Evaluation of a Fiber Optics Gyroscope for Improving Dead-Reckoning Accuracy in Mobile Robots

This paper presents results from the experimental evaluation of a state-of-the-art fiber-optics gyroscope. The purpose of our experiments was to evaluate the suitability of this gyroscope for enhancing dead-reckoning in mobile robots. The evaluated gyroscope was the "Autogyro Navigator" made by Andrews.
