Precision calibration of Fiber Optic Gyros

 Our unique calibration method for fiber optic gyros provides astounding results:

Original, off-the-shelf KVH E-core RD2000 fiber optic gyro, Serial Number NAVC 4377. 

Here shown are the errors of that gyro at the end of 360-deg turns as a function of rate of rotation and temperature. 

Errors of the same  KVH E-core RD2000 fiber optic gyro, Serial Number NAVC 4377 after our calibration. 

Here shown are the errors of that gyro at the end of 360-deg turns as a function of rate of rotation and temperature. 

We performed our calibration on tens of gyros to date, with uniformly good results.  Click here for a sample calibration report on five gyros for one of our customers.
