The Ultimate Precision Sensor Fiber Optic Gyroscope

1.Use light to calculate movement

Based on the Sagnac effect, fiber optic gyroscopes are passive systems that use light to calculate motion. Rotational motion is measured by sending the same laser beam in opposite directions through a long fiber optic coil. A laser beam in the opposite direction of rotation experiences a slightly shorter path delay than other beams. Measuring the phase shift between the two beams reveals the change in direction. Ericco's fiber-optic inertial navigation system consists of three FOG gyroscopes that measure rotation on three different axes of freely rotating objects in three dimensions. Ericco fully grasps the technology through vertical integration, has end-to-end control over the quality of the fiber optic gyro, and the control and adaptability of the product performance is the guarantee of quality and excellence.
Ericco has extensive experience in all markets, making full use of its inertial navigation experience in various markets. As a result, you have gained extensive knowledge and experience of FOG technology used in the field. As a result, our company is able to continuously develop and adapt its advanced algorithms to meet the changing requirements of our customers' daily operations.

2. Fiber optic gyro performance

We offer unmatched performance, scalable technology for all types of applications. The performance of the fiber optic gyroscope can be changed by changing the length and diameter of its coil, (we all know that the accuracy of the fiber optic gyroscope is determined by the length of the fiber, the longer the fiber length, the diameter is naturally large, the higher the accuracy, on the contrary, the accuracy is low). This enables it to adapt to a wide range of performance requirements. By pushing the technical limits of the optical components used in the FOG gyro, performance can also be further improved.

Because Ericco has complete control of all the components integrated into its systems, from its own fibers and components, to accelerometers and algorithms, the company can push the limits of FOG technology and take it to new performance peaks.
Fiber optic gyroscopes offer unparalleled reliability and are truly solid state passive systems. In fact, fiber optic gyro technology does not involve any movement of mechanical parts, will not cause jitter, vibration, friction, resulting in component wear and noise. This ensures many benefits for the user: acoustic stealth, system robustness (forget when you turn it on), cost effectiveness and the lowest cost on the market.
Fiber-optic gyroscopes offer unrivalled reliability, operating as a single component and relying solely on light motion, resistant to external interference such as shock, extreme temperature, magnetism or vibration. That's why fiber optic gyroscopes are equipped with systems that operate in extreme environments or expect sensors with high resistance: satellites, strategic submarines, long-range artillery, extreme deep water robots, and vehicles.

3. Summary

Ericco has a single axis, two axis, three axis profiled fiber optic gyro. Medium precision is very popular, and the application field is also very wide, such as optical pods, flight control platforms, inertial navigation systems, inertial measurement units, platform stabilizers, positioning systems, north finder, high precision measurement, navigation systems and servo systems. For example, ER-FOG-50 (0.2~2.0º/h), ER-FOG-60 (0.06~0.5º/h), ER-FOG-70 (0.05~0.8º/h), the parentheses are the zero-bias stability of fiber optic gyroscope. As we all know, zero-bias stability is one of the important indicators to evaluate the performance of a gyroscope. These are our hot selling products, they have a small size, light weight, pure solid, because there is no friction and moving parts, so long service life, if you are interested in any of our fiber optic gyro, want to get more technical data, please feel free to contact us.
