SPHERICAL GIMBAL?

[Antony Newman]

Two pieces of feedback for the Spherical Gimbal

1) A 'technologist' has advised me that R & D costs would be considerable to bring out a new spherical motor technology (he cited 1,000 to 10,000 the costs of 'off the shelf')

2) Creating a partial sphere within a sphere could present a hurdle.

EDIT : Here's one of the designs for an alternative to the standard Piezo crystal shapes that would enable the entire surface to move in any direction (two would be required ... and 'walk out of phase' in the same direction).

FYI.

I am moving the detail of the alternative design (the Tribal) to separate thread.
