Gyro

When a driverless car or autonomous drone loses GPS contact, it utilizes a tool known as an inertial measurement unit (IMU) to keep track of its orientation. Such devices could soon be more accurate than ever, thanks to a tiny new gyroscope.

​​If you've ever tried holding onto a spinning gyroscope, then you'll know how it "fights" you if you try to suddenly tip it over. Well, Imperial College London spinoff company GyroGear is utilizing that same principle in its new GyroGlove, which is designed to minimize hand tremors.​

Conventional training wheels might be useful in preventing cuts and bruises, but they can also lead to bad habits and lengthen the process of learning to ride a bike on your own. Jyrobike is a self-balancing bike that uses a gyroscope to keep kids on the straight and narrow.

The MōVI M10 setup is a motorized, triple gimbal system that provides rock-solid smoothness under ridiculous amounts of motion.

The 1967 prototype self-balancing two-wheeled Gyro-X car is being restored by an auto museum.

The Gyrobike is a 3-in-1 training system that takes the user from the first experiments with balance to gyroscope-assisted riding to unassisted solo biking - and its coming to Europe.

Black & Decker has announced the new Gyro 4V MAX Lithium-ion Rechargeable Screwdriver, which is activated and controlled with a twist of the wrist.

After observing the jumping habits of lizards, scientists have created an active-tailed robot that is able to adjust its body orientation in mid-air.

The C-1 is a proposed fully-electric and fully-enclosed self-balancing motorcycle.

The Thrustcycle SRT is a three-wheeled vehicle that incorporates a gyro/flywheel system to maintain its balance, and harvest power from braking.

A newly developed optical gyroscope, small enough to fit on the head of a pin, could allow the integration of more accurate motion sensing technology in a not only smartphones, but also in medical devices inside the human body.

The Epson Toyocom AH-6100LR is a compact six-axis sensor designed for motion tracking and tracing applications.
