Gyroscopic stabilization

Gyroscopic stabilization refers to the use of a spinning wheel or rotor to maintain balance and stability in various systems. When the wheel spins, it resists changes to its orientation due to its angular momentum, helping to keep whatever it's attached to steady. This principle is commonly seen in bicycles and motorcycles, where the wheels help maintain balance while moving. Gyroscopic stabilizers are also used in ships, aircraft, and space vehicles to counteract unwanted tilting or swaying, ensuring smoother and more controlled movement.
