=== HRG === The [[hemispherical resonator gyroscope]] (HRG), also called a wine-glass gyroscope<ref>{{Cite book |last=Grewal |first=Mohinder S. |url=https://www.worldcat.org/oclc/663976587 |title=Global positioning systems, inertial navigation, and integration |date=2007 |publisher=Wiley-Interscience |others=Lawrence R.

This shell is driven to a flexural resonance by electrostatic forces generated by electrodes which are deposited directly onto separate fused-quartz structures that surround the shell. Gyroscopic effect is obtained from the inertial property of the flexural standing waves.<ref>{{Cite journal |last1=Carta |first1=G. |last2=Nieves |first2=M. J. |last3=Jones |first3=I.
