Abstract

The improvement includes an outer proof mass having a corresponding center of mass; and an inner proof mass having a corresponding center of mass, where the corresponding centers of mass of the outer proof mass and the inner proof mass are approximately co-located. Thus, a double Foucault pendulum is essentially provided in a micromachined gyroscope.
