00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:06.960
gimbals the gold percussion instruments found at top any standard drum set which

00:00:04.640 --> 00:00:10.559
wait sorry let me try that again gimbals the tiny metal or plastic cups that

00:00:08.920 --> 00:00:15.080
people wear on their fingers to protect them while sewing which wait wrong again

00:00:13.440 --> 00:00:22.039
well how am I supposed to know all of this stuff One Last Time gimbals pivoted

00:00:19.800 --> 00:00:27.760
support mechanisms that allow attached objects to be rotated around a central

00:00:25.000 --> 00:00:31.599
axis but if that definition sent your head spinning around its Central axis

00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:37.559
like it did to mine here's a plain English one it lets an object let's say

00:00:34.040 --> 00:00:41.160
a drink stay oriented one way even when

00:00:37.559 --> 00:00:43.640
whatever it's mounted to is rotating and

00:00:41.160 --> 00:00:47.719
cup holders that don't spill when a ship is swaying back and forth in the ocean

00:00:45.960 --> 00:00:52.559
are just the beginning those who have seen our video about Optical image

00:00:49.879 --> 00:00:58.600
stabilization will already be aware that miniature gyroscopic sensors make

00:00:55.600 --> 00:01:01.359
greater stability possible in cameras by

00:00:58.600 --> 00:01:07.439
monitoring and affecting lens position in response to stimuli this process is

00:01:05.000 --> 00:01:12.720
remarkably similar to other systems like one's responsible for keeping commercial

00:01:09.799 --> 00:01:17.479
airliners autopilot programs constantly aware of the horizon or those that keep

00:01:15.080 --> 00:01:23.280
large luxury cruise liners from tipping over usually and triple gimbal support

00:01:20.960 --> 00:01:29.920
mounts known as Gyros that's better make it possible for

00:01:26.479 --> 00:01:32.320
an item to rotate completely free of its

00:01:29.920 --> 00:01:38.119
mounting allowing something like a a drone mounted camera to not only be

00:01:34.840 --> 00:01:42.240
stabilized up and down pitch left and

00:01:38.119 --> 00:01:45.079
right y but also on the third roll axis

00:01:42.240 --> 00:01:48.960
meaning that the camera shot stays level even when the Airborne platform it's

00:01:46.840 --> 00:01:54.439
attached to is altering its angle dramatically to get like that sick pan

00:01:51.560 --> 00:01:59.960
shot so gimbals that are paired with sensors and capable of manual adjustment

00:01:57.799 --> 00:02:05.640
of the orientation of the mounted object in addition to providing resistance to a

00:02:02.799 --> 00:02:10.640
change in orientation are called motored systems and you can find them on more

00:02:08.080 --> 00:02:15.519
than just drones I mean even rocket propulsion systems use them to allow

00:02:13.239 --> 00:02:20.640
thrust to be applied to the rocket ship in different directions as needed but

00:02:18.640 --> 00:02:25.239
what do drones and Rockets have in common well they're both complicated and

00:02:22.959 --> 00:02:29.360
expensive so if the goal is to build a better selfie stick or whatever the

00:02:27.440 --> 00:02:36.160
other type of gimbal you might encounter is a motorless one these systems rely on

00:02:32.560 --> 00:02:39.159
precise balance and sometimes even user

00:02:36.160 --> 00:02:43.120
intervention directly to keep them still and they are less capable of

00:02:40.760 --> 00:02:48.519
compensating for sudden aggressive movements but they are lighter and less

00:02:46.040 --> 00:02:52.760
expensive when a motored gimbal isn't required which still doesn't explain why

00:02:51.080 --> 00:02:57.239
the Blair Witch Project looked like absolute garbage none of this stuff is

00:02:54.959 --> 00:03:01.879
new and even though it's taken until now for many mainstream folks to realize

00:02:59.879 --> 00:03:06.280
that they're surrounded by gyroscopes and gimbals there are drawings of ink

00:03:04.040 --> 00:03:11.280
pots that never tip over going back thousands of years cool hey you know

00:03:08.840 --> 00:03:15.120
what else is cool fresh books it's the online

00:03:12.400 --> 00:03:18.519
accounting wonder I was trying to come up with a word there that wasn't

00:03:16.640 --> 00:03:22.280
Extravaganza because that was what I was about to say and let's face it even

00:03:20.159 --> 00:03:27.319
though fresh books does make your invoicing and getting paid and tracking

00:03:24.959 --> 00:03:31.000
expenses easier I wouldn't call anything that involves accounting and

00:03:28.720 --> 00:03:35.560
extravaganza basically it's a way to keep little details about you know cash

00:03:33.280 --> 00:03:39.840
flow and how many hours you've worked on this project in one place and it shows a

00:03:37.959 --> 00:03:46.439
full history of each invoice allowing you to check if your client has viewed

00:03:43.040 --> 00:03:49.439
the invoice as well as allow them to pay

00:03:46.439 --> 00:03:50.840
directly via credit card through fresh

00:03:49.439 --> 00:03:57.599
books which is pretty awesome because we all know that doing the work is one thing actually getting paid for it is

00:03:55.000 --> 00:04:02.439
quite another and you can monitor all of this from your phone so you can do it

00:03:59.519 --> 00:04:06.439
while you're out in between jobs or whatever else the case may be instead of

00:04:04.640 --> 00:04:10.439
getting home at the end of the day plopping yourself down in front of your

00:04:07.920 --> 00:04:14.000
computer and trying to remember what the crap happened that day when you're tired

00:04:12.200 --> 00:04:17.600
because you've been working so if you're Your Own Boss you should be using stuff

00:04:15.599 --> 00:04:23.240
that makes you feel like a boss and you want to head over to freshbooks.com
