  • Published:
Measurement Techniques Aims and scope

Abstract

The described device is protected by an Author's Certificate. A distinctive feature of this device is the possibility of measuring two angles of turn in planes containing the reference direction specified by a laser beam. Expressions are given for estimating the measurement accuracy. The device is quite universal and can find applications in various information measuring systems, and after certain refinements also in automatic control systems.
