Open-source gyrocompass software

Open-source gyrocompass software is a program whose source code is publicly available for anyone to view, modify, and distribute. It functions as a digital version of a traditional gyrocompass, which determines true north using sensors that detect rotational motion and inertia. Such software enables ships, aircraft, or navigation systems to accurately find direction without relying solely on external signals like GPS. Being open-source promotes transparency, collaboration, and customization, allowing developers and organizations to improve navigation technology, adapt it to specific needs, and ensure reliability through community contributions.
