• The pick-up sides are distorted by Coriolis force
the center axis of the sensor pillar. Two piezoelectric pick-up sides convert the distortion amount into two
electrical signals to indicate the exact yaw ratio.

AUTONOMOUS NAVIGATION OPERATION

• The navigation unit detects the position of the vehicle from a cumulative calculation of the vehicle's direction
and travelled distance based on the processing of direction data obtained from the gyro sensor and vehicle
speed signals obtained from the speedometer sensor (built into microcomputer inside instrument cluster).
• Even when GPS satellite reception is not available, accurate detection of vehicle's position is still possible.
• Signals from GPS satellites are used partially for detecting direction data.

GPS (GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM) NAVIGATION OUTLINE

• GPS is a navigation system developed by the U.S. Department of Defence. The system has GPS satellites
orbiting the earth at an altitude of approximately 21,000 km {13,000 miles}.
• There are at least five satellites over any point 24 hours a day.
• The navigation unit receives radio signals from these satellites and determines a vehicle's position.
