A Dynabee is a sphere with a gyroscope inside. It spins freely on its axis like an ordinary gyro. However the points of the axis are inside another circular component free to rotate inside the sphere (with somewhat more friction than the inner gyro).Once spinning, this device accelerates when oscilated. There is great resistance tothis motion, but the gyro accelerates faster and faster. I can get over 10,000 rpm with no connection to the inner rotating Gyroscope. These are sold in sporting goods s
