Why two gyroscopes? | Groundbreaking use of space satellite technology
Просмотров 7 тыс.6 месяцев назад
Founder & CEO Daniel Kim showcases four different gyroscopes, how they work, their placement in the AEV, and why our vehicle architecture utilizes two gyros over one. What are gyroscopes used for? Gyroscopes are typically used in earth observation satellites, but we've brought them down to a terrestrial application! Why two gyroscopes? 1. One gyro runs out of the precession budget and creates u...

    Very interesting.. 2 questions: 1) What kind of power consumption/range reduction do you expect from powering the gyros in a worse case scenario like driving through curvy roads? 2) Do you have a mechanical stand that deploys when you come to a stop?

    Choice of vehicle is a compromise... a six-seat car with one person in it now may contain the whole family on it's next trip. You may select your shirt from a rack, based on your plans for the day... suggesting that you should choose today's car in the same way is unrealistic for most of us. Don't get me wrong, I do like what you are doing, but I don't see it as a mainstream alternative to a multi-function vehicle.

      Theres a place for this for those single journeys to/from work but outside of that time typically spent with friends and family. Where are they going to sit. Most people buy vehicles that can do a little of everything not just one thing. Be interesting to see where this is placed in future. Also 1mil in the next 10 yrs? Thats 100,000 a year from right now and you’ve not got a production model never mind a factory or supply chain… better get ur skates on.

    great tech! 1/ have you considered using smaller/lighter gyros for stability at low speeds and using steering actuation for high speed stability? less weight and less energy loss to keep rhe gyros spinning. 2/ if lighter gyros is not an option, you should consider using the gyros energy storage/flywheel for regen/acceleration ? regen while slowing slowing down could be used to spin the gyros faster, storing energy like 1st gen F1 KERS, while providing increasing stability at lower speeds, and then accelerating could use the energy from the gyros used as flywheel to power the motor with minimal draw from the battery. you would get better regen efficiency (no electricity > chemical > electricity conversion), electric output increase (not limited to the battery output), longer battery life (less cycles) two 40lbs gyros with 20cm radius spinning 10krpm give about 200Wh best case. this may not sound like a big energy buffer compared to batteries but the ability to charge/discharge the energy fully in a few seconds with great efficiency an no wear is very useful. 200Wh is 3 times the energy to bring a 360kg +80kg driver up to 75mph!! (sorry for the imperial/metric mess😂) assuming 100% efficiency you would actually only need to slow down the gyros from 10krpm to 8krpm to accelerate from 0 to 75mph... obviously you would need powerful electric motors to accelerate / decelerate those gyros quickly enough but motors are cheaper/lighter than batteries and the rotor weight would be integral part of the gyro, so actually little weight penalty this is my gift (no patent) to your project 😂
