In 1915 the Sperry Company, employing a two-frame gyroscope, devised a gyrostabilizer to reduce the rolling of ships, thus minimizing damage to cargo, reducing stresses in the hull structure, and adding to the comfort of passengers. The roll-reducing action of this type of gyrostabilizer was quite effective and was independent of the speed of the ship. 4, record 1, English, - gyrostabilizer

AILE IMAGE propose 3 systèmes latéraux qui permettent de filmer par la porte, ouverte, de l’hélicoptère. Ces systèmes s’adaptent au plus grand nombre de caméras et permettent lorsqu’ils sont équipés de gyrostabilisateurs d’utiliser de longues focales. Ils permettent de filmer de côté mais également en plongée et vers l’avant si des mouvements rapides ne sont pas nécessaires. Il s’agit des HELIVISION I et II, le type I pouvant être gyrostabilisé à l’aide des gyroscopes les plus puissants existant actuellement sur le marché. 1, record 1, French, - gyrostabilisateur
