Introduction – Chapter 2
The Gyro HG G-84300ZD measures the angle of one rotation axis and permanently
outputs this angle via its interface, CAN/CANopen®. This information can be used
by a superordinate vehicle controller (not part of the scope of supply) to calculate the
current position of all types of vehicles, thus using the Gyro as part of an inertial nav
-
igation system.

The device is based on the latest generation of the MEMS technology. Compared to
other gyroscopes, it offers advantages like cost-performance ratio, low current con
-
sumption, excellent robustness and long durability. In addition to the high quality
technology the Gyro offers an integrated Drift Compensation algorithm, that can be
used to further increase the accuracy of the angle measurement (see section 4.1 on
page 12).
