chapter 5 gyroscope gyroscope is a spatial mechanism as shown in Figure 1 and generally employed for the control of angular motion of a body.

Rotor is rotating about YY axis. BB Pin joint between inner gimbal and outer gimbal. CC Pin joint between outer gimbal and fixed frame. If we attempt to move some of its parts, it does not only resist this motion but even evades it. This resistance to change in the direction of rotational axis is called the gyroscopic effect. Applications of gyroscopes are: (1) For directional control (i) gyro compass : for air planes & ships.
