PITTSBURGH (KDKA) - Sometimes seemingly simple toys have some pretty cool science packed into them. You may remember when we showed you all the scientific processes that made the thirsty bird toy ...

This paper presents an optoplasmonic gyroscope that employs a novel bent-hybrid structure, and works double-sided. The proposed device is integrable without moving parts, and simply has a robust ...

Paul Ceruzzi, Chair of the Space History Department at the National Air and Space Museum, discusses how gyroscopes work. For more information about navigation in ...

I am baffled by gyroscopes. I remember from physics in college they had the bike tire hung by its axle from a rope somehow. They would spin the tire and it would orbit the rope standing upright. If ...

This video explains the principles of physics behind how a gyroscope works and its applications in various technologies. US strikes Iran in response to helicopter downing: CENTCOM House passes $70 ...

This module uses the gyroscope on the SenseHAT. It allows you to demonstrate how a gyroscope works with an airplane animation using Scratch. Additionally, it provides a good introduction to ...
