Question GYRO help

Hello All,
I'm working on a project for a summer internship that involves the gyro. Basically, I'll be making a robot that travels around a predetermined area, and makes an elevation map of it. I'll be using the gyro in the FIRST kit, and I'm trying to find the specification sheet. From the FIRST site I found the Yaw rate sensor came from a BEI System Doner, but a google search for BEI came up with a lot of foreign companies that don't sell gyros. So, if anyone knows the website for the company that provides the gyro I'd apreciate that a lot. I'm connecting it to a Basic Stamp, so I'm assuming I'll need an Anolog to Digital converter. If anyone has any expirience with that, what's a good one to use with the Basic Stamp?

Thanks,
Stephen
