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 ...
I simply said tersely that it wouldn’t work. The reason I said it wouldn’t work is that the requirement for batteries to maintain the gyroscope at a sufficiently high revolution would make the stick ...
The modern smartphone is only possible because of sensors. Their svelte form factor conceals accelerometers, magnetometers, temperature sensors, a GPS unit, and gyroscopes. They all consume volume and ...
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 ...
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 ...
