Chip-scale gyroscope achieves record rotation sensitivity

Original: New chip-scale gyroscope measures rotation with unprecedented sensitivity

Researchers have developed a chip-scale gyroscope that measures rotation with unprecedented sensitivity, according to a new report. Shrinking high-precision gyroscopes onto a microchip could make navigation systems smaller and cheaper, reducing dependence on GPS for aircraft, drones and autonomous vehicles. The announcement is drawing attention from the semiconductor and sensor communities.

Why now: A significant miniaturisation breakthrough in precision sensing is of interest to tech and defence industries
