Description:
G. Sagnac, who first demonstrated the sensing of inertial rotation by means of optical interferometry in 1913, would probably be amazed at the spectacular precision made possible today by instruments based on the same principle: The ring laser gyro and the fiber sensors and a fascinating modern development within the exciting story of fiber optics. This book provides an excellent current account of the fiber gyro art by some of the principal contributors to its development. The book also describes the advanced development and engineering aspects of the IFOG story, concerned with upgrading the IFOG from a sensitive laboratory interferometer to a practical rotation sensor.
