Abstract
A ring gyroscope which comprises first and second transversal symmetry axes and first and second diagonal symmetry axes in the ring plane. The gyroscope further comprises one or more primary piezoelectric split transducers configured to drive the ring into resonance oscillation and one or more secondary piezoelectric split transducers configured to sense the oscillation of the ring. The gyroscope further comprises four or more mass elements which form a symmetrical mass distribution in relation to both the first and second transversal symmetry axes and to the first and second diagonal symmetry axes, wherein each mass element is attached to the ring from a bridge connector and the bridge connectors are evenly distributed along the ring.
