Futuristic Gyroscopic Transportation

Gyroscopes consists of a wheel or disk mounted so that it can spin rapidly about an axis that is free to alter in direction. The orientation of the axis is not affected by tilting of the mounting; so gyroscopes can be used to provide stability or maintain a reference direction in navigation systems, automatic pilots and stabilizers. Gyroscopic transportation may be in the near future. Click the graphic below to view a futuristic gyroscopic firetruck and other transportation.
