Help Me Identify this Sensor!

It's been a while since I last posted, but I figured somebody here would be able to help me out.

I am designing and building an AUV (Autonomous Underwater Vehicle) for my Intro to Ocean Engineering class at Florida Tech. I am developing an inertial navigation system that uses an accelerometer in conjunction with a yaw rate sensor to keep the AUV moving in a straight line across a swimming pool (our assignment). I picked up this yaw rate sensor from a nearby robotics team's shop a few months ago:



However, it has absolutely no markings whatsoever to indicate the manufacturer or serial number. I am pretty sure it was part of the FIRST Kit of Parts at one time... but after searching through the old KOP lists that FIRST has archived on their website, I still could not positively identify the sensor. I need to know the manufacturer/serial number because I need the datasheet for programming purposes.

Does anyone recognize it? Does anyone have a link to the datasheet?

Thanks in advance.
