The benefits of a marine gyrocompass are significant, especially for vessels operating in environments where magnetic interference is prevalent. Unlike magnetic compasses, gyrocompasses are not affected by the Earth’s magnetic field, providing a stable and accurate reference to true north. This ensures more precise navigation, particularly in open seas or areas with unpredictable magnetic anomalies. […]
A marine gyrocompass works by using the principles of gyroscopic motion to maintain a stable reference to true north. Unlike a traditional magnetic compass, which relies on the Earth’s magnetic field, the gyrocompass is unaffected by magnetic interference. The system consists of a spinning rotor that maintains a fixed orientation in space due to the […]
