Bicycle-wheel gyroscope Check it out! When the wheel isn't spinning, it's easy to tilt it from side to side. But when the wheel is given a spin, its forward momentum resists side to side movement.
And it’s all thanks to this ingenious gyro-equipped bike wheel. Like the Seqway before it, the Gyrowheel uses, well, a gyro, to maintain balance long enough so that a child can comfortably get ...
The art of teaching your child to ride a bike hasn't changed in... well, ever, really. You get a running start, swallow your heart, and let go. Soon they wreck, you wipe up the tears, and start ...
A ‘control hub’ in the front wheel dictates how the gyroscope acts. This can also be bought separately and attached to another bike. It can change the rate that the disc in the front wheel ...
Training wheels were my crutch. Skip to content ... But then this week the journal Science came along and upturned the rickshaw with their quirky looking bicycle physics-testing, gyro-negating ...
The 12-inch wheel (a 16-inch version is in the works) replaces a standard front tire and has an adjustable-speed spinning disc inside, powered by a rechargeable battery.
To prove that gyro and caster effects were not needed, the researchers built a riderless bicycle with two small wheels, each matched with a counter-rotating disk to eliminate the gyro effects, and ...
A gyroscope wheel that stays upright could have kids riding a bike in an hour and make stabilisers a thing of the past. Gyrowheel's batterydriven spinning inner disk senses unbalanced riding and ...
To prove that gyro and caster effects were not needed, the researchers built a riderless bicycle with two small wheels, each matched with a counter-rotating disk to eliminate the gyro effects, and ...
The researchers found that "almost any self-stable bicycle can be made unstable by misadjusting either the trail, the front-wheel gyro or the front-assembly, center-of-mass position." ...
