  • Gyroscope noise reduction and drift compensation
    Patent number: 5795988
    Abstract: A low-cost gyroscope can provide an output approaching the accuracy of more precise instruments by processing the gyroscope output signal. First, a calibration algorithm develops a set of coefficients to predict drift. Second, an adaptive operational algorithm updates the coefficients during periods of inactivity and filters out high and low frequency noise components. An accurate, low-cost, rugged aiming device for a weapon can be realized with a simple, relatively-inexpensive gyroscope by utilizing the foregoing algorithms.
