ABSTRACT:
A magnetic gyroscope includes a flexible rotating disk having a plurality of magnetic regions formed in or on the periphery of the disk. Typically four pairs of magnetic sensors are disposed about the disk at 90.degree. angles with respect to each other to detect the magnetic regions as the disk rotates, each sensor pair including a sensor above the disk and one below it. The sensors detect changes in the separation of the disk from the sensors and supply this information to an amplifier to control the gyroscope or the structure within which the gyroscope is mounted.
