  • Abstract
    A bicycle with a gyroscopic stabilisation capable of autonomous motion along a straight line as well as along a curve is described. The stabilisation unit consists of two coupled gyroscopes spinning in opposite directions. It makes use of a gyroscopic torque due to the precession of gyroscopes. This torque counteracts the destabilising torque due to gravity forces. The control law of the actuator drive making the gyroscopes to process is described
