| These acceleration-sensing gyroscopic devices are offered by some autopilot manufacturers as an option or as an integral part of the system. |
|
| As the tailwheel lifts during the takeoff run, gyroscopic precession tries to turn the plane left of centerline. |
|
| A pre-set magnetic compass and gyroscopic auto-pilot determined and maintained its course. |
|
| The purpose was to neutralize the gyroscopic forces of the normal rotary engine. |
|
| Because of this tendency, most ships and airplanes use gyroscopic compasses instead. |
|
| The horribly complex equations cover two pages, with factors including angular momentum, frictional force, angular velocity, axis of symmetry and gyroscopic balance. |
|
| With support from Sperry and MIT, Draper and his students designed and built the Mark 14 gyroscopic lead-computing gunsight. |
|
| Also, the amount of gyroscopic precession exhibited by the heading indicator would have made night navigation difficult. |
|
| It may even fall over or topple when the applied force overpowers the gyroscopic inertia. |
|
| The gyroscopic effect caused by turning the front wheel may help maintain stability when leaning into a bend. |
|
| A gyroscopic mounting platform with several DC-Micromotors proved to be the perfect solution. |
|
| The gyroscopic inertia of a spinning rotor increases as its mass and spin rate increase. |
|
| For the bending modi, the options for deflection due to shear and gyroscopic effects are also available. |
|
| This is achieved using an internal gyroscopic mechanism or with electronic sensors coupled to microprocessors that instantaneously adjust for any motion. |
|
| Since then, improvements have made contemporary optics waterproof and shockproof, added gyroscopic image stabilization, and even enabled night vision. |
|
| A factor that influences the values of the natural angular frequencies is the gyroscopic moment. |
|
| The bombardier then checked the gyroscopic stabilization of the bombsight and clutched in the electrical motor. |
|
| The 10-gram microflyer demonstrated autonomous operation using only visual, gyroscopic and anemometric sensors. |
|
| This ingenious device can levitate in the air for more than five minutes, using the opposing forces of gravity and magnetism, and stabilizers in space thanks to the gyroscopic effect of the top. |
|
| The pilot undertook the flight with a gyroscopic heading indicator that likely precessed beyond tolerances and, as such, was in all likelihood defective. |
|
|
|
| This motion is called gyroscopic precession. |
|
| Moreover, the number of corrections needed to maintain track suggests the gyroscopic heading indicator on board the occurrence aircraft likely precessed in excess of the 2.5º to 3.0º per 15 minute tolerances. |
|
| Silent and non-polluting as well, this electric scooter remains efficient thanks to the decrease of the gyroscopic effect and unsprung mass, in particular connected with orbital wheels. |
|
| Although their experiments showed that gyroscopic and castor effects were not necessary to make a bicycle stable, both seemed to help in some way to make it more ridable. |
|
| They regard the Segway with its ingenious gyroscopic technology that lets them glide around simply by leaning in the direction they want to go as a plaything. |
|
| But because the mass of the front wheel is small compared with the rest of the vehicle and its rider, the gyroscopic effect on overall stability is slight. |
|
| These include the gyroscopic precession effect of the rotor that is, the dissymmetry of lift created by the forward movement of the helicopter, resulting in the advancing blade having more lift and the retreating blade less. |
