When the gyroscope is spun on its axis at high speeds it resists movements in certain directions and demonstrates extraordinary stability of balance as seen in the video below. Traditional gyroscopes work on the basis that a spinning object that is tilted perpendicularly to the direction of the spin will have a precession. The gimbals have nearly-frictionless bearings which isolate the central disc from outside torque. They usually take the form of a disc-shaped object or rotor which is suspended in light supporting rings called gimbals. Gyroscopes are designed to measure angular rate or orientation about a given directional vector.
