What is a Gyrocompass?
A Gyrocompass is a marine navigation instrument that automatically determines true north without depending on magnetic north.
Unlike magnetic compasses, gyrocompasses provide:
- Accurate true heading
- Stable directional reference
- Reliable navigation data
- Better autopilot performance
- Improved radar and ECDIS integration
Gyrocompasses are essential for:
- Ship steering systems
- Radar heading reference
- ECDIS navigation
