The gyroscope-based north finder is designed to quickly and independently determine the true north direction. It works by tracking the Earth's rotation angular velocity through a high-precision gyroscope, extracting the Earth's rotation signal, and computing the angle between the gyroscope's primary axis and the true north direction. This allows it to deliver accurate azimuth information for navigation and positioning systems.
This device is a highly integrated electromechanical system, incorporating a gyroscope, accelerometer, precision mechanical rotation module, and an embedded computing unit. These components work together to ensure accurate north-seeking performance even in dynamic or challenging environments.

Facing the arrow of the gyro north finder, the left and right sides of the mounting base plate are the mounting reference planes. Align the reference planes with the mounting head and tail lines of the carrier, and fix the gyro north finder on the carrier with three M5 screws.
The complete set of equipment includes:
- 1 set of fiber optic gyroscope north finder
- One aviation plug connecting wire
