Driving with the gyroscope
YOU WILL NEED
› Gyroscope
› Wheels with gears
› 4 anchor pins
› 3 x AAA baeries
› Watch or clock
HERE’S HOW
1. Open the cover on the underside of the gyroscope. That’s
how you get to the baery compartments.
2. Insert the baeries as indicated inside the baery
compartments and replace the cover.
3. With the help of the anchor pin, firmly aach the wheels
with the gears to the underside of the gyroscope.
4. Now switch on the gyroscope.
5. The disk inside will start to spin. Hold the gyroscope
straight and wait for the disk to reach its top speed. This
will take about 20 seconds.
6. Set the model on a table or on the ground. How does it
move?
WHAT’S HAPPENING
Your model is not only stable, it can also move
forward! The motor powers the disk and gear
system (consisting of several gear wheels) via the
axle. The gears then set the wheels in motion.
KEYWORD: PERSONAL TRANSPORTER
A personal transporter consists of an electrically
powered rolling platform that keeps its balance with the
help of five gyroscopes. The driver stands on the platform.
The gyroscopic effect is used to control the speed of the
motors: If the driver leans slightly or strongly in a given
direction, the roller moves in that direction a
proportional amount.
Build your own personal
transporter model. Just like a real one, this
model can keep its balance as it moves along.
