What is the difference between gyro and directional gyro?

The term Gyro refers to any Gyroscope (Space,Earth,Tied or Rate) whereas Directional Gyro is typically a Tied Gyro which is used in Aircraft for the purpose of Heading reference in DGI (Directional Gyro indicator) because it does not suffer any errors like magnetic compass.


Why gyro compass is used in ships instead of magnetic compass?

Because a ship is made of metal, which can affect the accuracy of a standard magnetic compass. Also, a gyrocompass is is better able to point to the true north, which is more accurate to navigation than magnetic North, which is not actually true North. Link below:

What is the different between a magnetic and gyro compass?

A magnetic compass uses the poles of our planet to stay in alignment. A Gyroscopic compass is set to a particular direction and tends to try to stay that way. After time, even the best Gyro will start to precess (move). This means the you will need to compare your Gyro to the magnetic every 15 minutes or so. Some modern gyroscopic compasses are capable of auto resetting to do this update automatically


How does the north seeking gyro work?

North seeking gyro is the best gyroscopic surveying instrument for the mining and Oil & Gas industries. As it is a North-Seeking Gyro, all measurements are in reference to geographic North. Unlike other downhole survey or magnetic tools, it is not affected by magnetic interference. When it comes to directional surveying where precision and accuracy are of paramount importance, especially in areas with strong magnetic influences, true North-seeking gyro while drilling is the only solution. It can run inside casing without worrying about the magnetic influences causing deviations and errors.SPT true North-seeking gyro while drilling uses quartz technology, more rugged and highly precise in operation.

What does a magnetic compass do?

It uses a magnetic needle to point to the earth's magnetic North Pole. The only other type of compass used is a gyro-compass. This uses a wheel which rotates parallel with the earth's rotation.


Where is the gyro sensor for the navigation located in a 2005 Nissan Altima?

I seriously doubt that any modern automotive navigation system uses gyro's. Just about everyone uses GPS, it's much more accurate and reliable.
