SYSTEM FOR FIBER-OPTIC GYROSCOPE IN AN AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE

The present application generally relates to systems and methods for a fiber-optic gyroscope on an autonomous vehicle. The autonomous vehicle includes a fiber-optic gyroscope. The fiber-optic gyroscope includes at least one fiber-optic cable loop integrated into a structure of the autonomous vehicle. The autonomous vehicle further includes an autonomy computing system comprising at least one processor coupled to the fiber-optic gyroscope and at least one memory device storing computer. The processor is configured to receive sensor data from the fiber-optic gyroscope and compute a heading for an autonomous vehicle based on the sensor data.
