And, do we need separate motors for stabilization module or integrate the output from gyros to the azimuthal and traversal motors used for the gun control?
Well I am doing a project on gun stabilization. It could be mounted any moving platform, say a vehicle.
Time should be as short as possible of course. Greater the accuracy, greater would be the project.
Accuracy is the key. Spinning flywheels cannot provide the accuracy one needs in gun stabilization. Thats why people have switched to modern gyros like Fiber Optic gyros and Ring Laser Gyros.
Yes spinning wheel gyros
But Ring laser gyros have frequency lock in issue. Secondly they have very poor response to slow angular rates, i.e they do not sense slow angular change
Hello every body. Has anybody used Fiber Optic Gyros? How accurate they are? How about the price range? Could anybody help me select a suitable actuator system/motor mechanism for, say a camera stabilization or a gun stabilization using a fiber optic gyro. I want to get rid of mechanical gyros.
Hello there. I was interested to know that how a tiny gryo stabilizes a massive gun turret of a tank and how it stablilizes a 12.7 MM gun mounted on a tank or an APC? Its fine that gyro senses the change in orientation, but how does it maintain the orientation of a heavy gun like 12.7 mm?
