I am considering the use of gyroscopes to provide 3 dof attitude control of underwater craft, similar to how control moment gyroscopes have been used in the attitude control systems of satellites. It is hoped that this could replace the standard rudder configuration to minimize effects to the external flow field, leading to benefits in engine efficiency and more agile maneuvers.
Does anyone know of previous work done related to this or any resources that may aid in my understanding of utilizing gyroscopes to orient submerged vehicles?
Thanks,
