driving through a pair of worm and gears beneath the base. The angular velocity about anaxis in a horizontal plane and at right angles to the pivot axis is measured by measuring the preces- sional force exerted by the gyroscope (B) mounted in pivots (C) and restrained in a neutral position by the… … Fig. 3.—Angular velocity recorder.

The motion of the gyroscope case about its pivots, due to the precessional moment of the gyroscope, is transmitted by means of the arm (F) and stylus to a small mirror (G) not in view. In the…
