Direction detection apparatus
First Claim
1. A direction detection apparatus comprising a centrifugal force detector including a weight and a detecting means for detecting a movement of said weight and generating a centrifugal force signal, a clock signal generator generating a time signal, a velocity detector generating a velocity signal, and a computation means connected to said force detector, clock signal generator and velocity generator to compute a directional angle on the basis of said centrifugal force signal, said time signal and said velocity signal.

Abstract
A direction detection apparatus which detects the traveling direction of a moving object on the basis of the movement of a weight. It comprises a centrifugal force detector, a clock signal generator, and a velocity detector, and also a detection device which receives signals from the detectors and the generator to provide a directional angle.
