Saudi Arabia unveils locally developed Gyro-Stablization system
Saudi Arabian National Research institute "KACST" has recently unveiled a locally developed a platform Gyro-Stabilization system for UAVs, rotary wing and fixed wing aircrafts, and the system is considered one of the primary components of Aircrafts autonomous systems in UAVs and in the Autopilot of rotary wing and fixed wing aircrafts.
The system detects the platform's speed, direction and the effect of gravity by using a mixture of complex algorithms, the system can also be incorporated into missile platforms especially cruise missiles.
The system maintains the direction of the platform at a constant speed regardless of exterior factors as it works to stabilize the platform, the system can also be given commands to the direction of which an autonomous vehicle is set to go during mid flight.
The work on the system begun in 2010 and 90% of the program has finished is currently undergoing testing in KACST facilities. The program is set for completion in 2013.
Institutes that benefit from this program are the military and national defense research institutes .
