"Poinsot's Pixel Spaceship"

Physics of the gyroscope - seen as an invasion of friendly aliens :)

#SciArt #MathArt #PhysicsArt

Ellipsoid intersecting sphere as the equations say :)

Hand-crafted Javascript code based on #threejs, no AI. MathJax for the LaTex characters.

Physics details in ALT.
Digital collage of code-generated artworks: An purple ellipsoid intersects a blue sphere. Either sutrface is shown as covered with dots in varying colors. Ethereal, sparkling effect. Background: Physics of the force-free gyroscope. The intersection of ellipsoid and sphere represents the path the angular momentum vector traces out, seen from the spinning gyroscope. Equations for constant energy (ellipsoid) and magnitude of constant angular momentum (sphere) are added as LaTex characters, floating over the surface of the ellipsoid.

(false-colour) pink. Jupiter's largest moon Ganymede appears on the upper left. Juno continues on a looping 33-day orbit around Jupiter, while Earth-orbiting Hubble is aging and now relies on a single stabilizing gyroscope.

apparently in addition to the touchpads and the extra buttons on the back (and gyroscope) it also has capacitive analog sticks and grips so it can tell how youre holding it so you can eg. tie that to mode switching

Loving it, but it was a missed chance to release a 'separable controller", like the joycons, which are more comfortable to aim with gyroscope.

One of the expert witnesses in the sandwich case testified that he examined the evidence under a gyroscope.

Tom's Hardware at least gets credit for acknowledging they didn't have enough time to test everything and that more time would be needed for the trackpads. Kudos to them for being upfront there.

But it makes me wonder if Valve didn't have anyone who had experience with the trackpads on hand?
Tom's Hardware Managing editor Matt Safford said that the controller felt comfortable in his brief demo time, though he spent more time cycling through the various modes than settling on a specific one. Quickly using the gyroscope to move the cursor after removing a couple of fingers from the grip did instantly feel intuitive. More time, he said, will tell how he feels about the touchpads, given his muscle memory and proclivity for the FPS genre is based on a keyboard and mouse. The controller didn't feel overly bulky, nor heavy or light. The plastic used in the construction generally felt fine, neither overly cheap or particularly premium. It feels similar to a Steam Deck. https://www.tomshardware.com/video-games/console-gaming/valve-brings-back-steam-machine-and-steam-controller-hands-on-with-valves-new-amd-based-living-room-gaming-hardware

It's a Halloween miracle! I finished this before the day is done!
Verisimilitude (giant snake lady) is wearing dark purple clothes exposing her cleavage, she has purple gloves that go almost to her shoulder, and she has a witch's hat She is smiling cutely while holding a pumpkin with a city held in a gyroscope inside she is surrounded by dark clouds and the moon is shining behind her as a waxing gibbous

It's not super obvious but I wanted to do something with the pumpkin so there is a city in there

and then I was like "Oh no I drew her holding the pumpkin at an angle! That would be bad for the people living there..." so the city is also in a gyroscope...
The city held in a gyroscope, you can barely make out buildings. There is a false sun above providing light

#3wordchallenge Oct 28: Rose-gold – Crow – Gyroscope-Wraith
Clockwork Carrion
A raven reborn from gears and petals, caught between decay and divinity.
#digitalart #steampunk #darkfantasy #symbolism #GenAI #SynthArt #AIart #aiartist #aiartcommunity #GenerativeArt #AIchallenge #BuilderofNightmares
A surreal depiction of a large bird resembling a crow or raven, rendered as a fusion of organic and mechanical elements. Its feathers dissolve into wisps of smoke and metal filigree, while sections of its body appear composed of intricate clockwork gears and copper mechanisms. The upper torso blooms with dark red roses and torn petals that merge seamlessly into corroded bronze plating. Behind the bird’s head, faint concentric circles evoke celestial or mechanical diagrams, lending a sense of cosmic precision. The background is pale and minimal, allowing the intricate textures of soot, rust, and flower to dominate the scene. The overall effect is both haunting and delicate—an embodiment of entropy and resurrection suspended in mechanical stillness. Keywords: raven, steampunk, clockwork, surreal, decayed beauty, flowers, smoke, mechanical bird, copper, symbolism, ethereal, dark art Clearly identified as AI-generated; use is permitted for non-commercial creative projects.

GIF with a g-sound is a hill I'll die on.

As for gyre, per Humpty Dumpty it's derived from gyroscope which gets the j sound so even I'm a) definitely wrong pronouncing it with a g, and b) I'll probably never stop pronouncing it with a g.

OTOH, Humpty's interpertation is iffy per canon, so?

If you thought getting a simple pitch/yaw/roll angular reading out of a gyroscope sensor would be easy you obviously had nothing to do with the design of the mpu6500

Plus side of having grown kids is they can take their auntie to do things while I'm stuck here feeling like I'm riding a gyroscope.

A little bummed I can't take her to Japan town. She loves her some Japan town.

I did manage to take her to my local comic book store at least!
