Abstract

In this paper, we developed the new-type digital gyrocompass for ship. This is made of DTG(Dynamically Tuned Gyro) and two accelerometers. The simple structure of two-axis free gimbals and the digital precession by CPU unit are main differences from Sperry or Anschutz type gyrocompass. As experimental results, the developed gyrocompass seeks the true north within 1 hour and support maximum speed 100[knot], maximum latitude $75[^{\circ}]NS$. By the comparison with other company's Products, we show the uniqueness and the excellence of the proposed gyrocompass.
