Rotation sensing technologies compared.

TechnologyMoving partsSpin-up timeMain limitation
Air-driven spinning massYesYesGradual undetected failure
Electric spinning massYesYesBearing wear and drift
Ring laserDither onlyNoLock-in at low rates
Fibre opticNoneNoSensitivity to temperature

What general trend does the table show?

  • A.Removing moving parts removed failures
  • B.Optical gyros have no limitations
  • C.Mechanical gyros are more accurate
  • D.Spin-up time is the main design constraint

Answer: A

Each generation eliminated the dominant failure of the one before it, replacing it with a different and generally more manageable limitation. None of them is free of limitations, which is why the last column is never empty.
