Zusammenfassung:	Drive-embedded dither pickoff embodiments for a dither motor of a ring laser gyroscope are disclosed. In one embodiment, an apparatus comprises a dither motor comprising an outer rim; a hub section; and a plurality of reeds that couple the hub section with the outer rim. A first pickoff embedded drive transducer is mounted on a first side of at least one reed. The first pickoff embedded drive transducer includes a first pickoff section, and a first drive section that is separated from the first pickoff section by a first insulative gap. A second pickoff embedded drive transducer is mounted on a second side of the at least one reed in a back-to-back relationship with the first pickoff embedded drive transducer. The second pickoff embedded drive transducer includes a second pickoff section, and a second drive section that is separated from the second pickoff section by a second insulative gap.
