The Systron Donner Inertial (SDI) clinic team has been tasked with designing, writing, and judging the performance of an improved gyroscope bias compensation algorithm. The goal of the project is to reduce rate error by a factor of 10. This goal will be reached with the assistance of statistical analysis and an embedded neural network which will allow the team to explore new causes in gyroscope bias.
