ABSTRACT:
The apparatus and method for reducing gyro activation time is to be used with a gyroscope including a float floated within an outer case. An electromagnetic suspension is provided for maintaining the float at an equilibrium position within the outer case. In accordance with the present invention, the centering force is increased and the activation time decreased by selectively disabling one of the electromagnets in the suspension.
