ABSTRACT:
A rate sensor comprising a glass annulus filled with an electrolytic fluid. A plurality of electrodes in contact with the electrolyte have an electrical field established between them which in turn starts a flow of ions between the electrodes. When the device is rotated about a predetermined axis the flow of ions between certain electrodes is increased. Electronic means connected to output electrodes senses the change in ion flow and determines the rotational rate of the vehicle upon which the sensor is mounted.
