Mems Gyro

MEMS gyroscopes use microelectromechanical systems technology to sense rotation and turning motions. They incorporate tiny mechanical and electrical components on a semiconductor chip, including levers, springs, membranes and vibrating structures. MEMS gyroscopes detect rotation by taking advantage of the Coriolis effect on a vibrating mass in the device. They have a variety of applications including positioning of spacecraft, detecting yaw rate for steering calculations, roll over detection in vehicles, and image stabilization in cameras.

MEMS Gyroscope

What is MEMS Technology?


• Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems.

• Micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS)


is a technology that combines computers
with tiny mechanical devices such as
sensors, valves, gears, mirrors, and
actuators embedded in semiconductor
chips
How it works?
• It comprise integrated
Mechanical Components like,
•levers
•springs
• deformable membranes
•vibrating structures
Electrical Components like,
•resistors
•capacitors
• inductors

• Designed to work in concert to sense and report on the physical


properties of their immediate or local environment to perform some
kind of controlled physical interaction or actuation with their
immediate or local environment.

MEMS Gyroscope
Type
• Piezoelectric gyroscopes
• Wine-glass resonator
• Cylindrical resonator gyroscope (CRG)
• Tuning fork gyroscope
• Vibrating wheel gyroscope or Disc resonator gyroscope (DRG)
Application
• Helps in Positioning of Spacecraft
• Helps in detection of Yaw Rate, thus, helps in calculation of
steering Error
• Roll Over detection
• Gaming Companies use MEMS Gyroscope in making Gaming
Consoles
• Smart Phones are nowadays equipped with it, making it an input
device for running of various applications
• Used as a Image Stabilization device for Cameras and
Camcorders
• Detect Vibrations and Movements, thus robots can work more
efficiently
