Strapdown Inertial Navigation Technology

David Titterton is a member of the DSTL college of Fellows (individual merit scientists) and is currently the technical leader of laser systems at this government laboratory. He is also a visiting Professor at the University of Cranfield. John Weston is a Prinipal Scientist at Halliburton Sperry-Sun researching inertial/gyroscopic systems for the surveying of underground pipelines and well bores. He has worked in missile guidance and control, originally with British Aerospace plc.
