[0005] In an embodiment, the wearable device includes a motion controller coupled to the
first motor and configured to provide a control signal to the first motor indicative of a motion
profile
[0006] In an embodiment, first motor is a server motor that receives the control signal and
in response rotates the wheel mount in accordance with the motion profile.
[0007] In an embodiment, the wheel has a radius that is less than or equal to 0.03 meters
and a thickness that is less than or equal to 0.01 meters.
[0008] In an embodiment, the angular velocity of the wheel mount is greater or equal to
600 radians per second and the angular velocity of the wheel is greater than or equal to 200 radians
per second.
[0009] In an embodiment, the wearable device is a head-mounted display and the human
body partis a human head
[0010] In an embodiment, the attachment mechanism further comprises padding that is
configured to be disposed between the head-mount display and the user's head.
{oor} In an embodiment, at least one of a size, weight, shape or location of the padding
is configured to provide a counterbalance to a weight of one or more gyroscopic precession
engines
[0012] In an embodiment, the support structure includes a mechanical torque amplifier or
redirector for amplifying or redirecting the torque.
[0013] In an embodiment, the wearable device includes three gyroscopic precession
engines that provide three forces along three mutually orthogonal directions to generate yaw, pitch
and roll rotations in a head-centered coordinate system
[0014] In an embodiment, a method comprises: detecting, with a processor of a wearable
device, trigger event data for a trigger event associated with content playing on the wearable device
or another device; generating, by a motion controller, a control signal in response to the detected
trigger event data; and receiving, by a server motor coupled to the wearable device, the control
signal and, in response to the control signal, rotating a wheel mount at a first angular velocity
coupled to a wheel rotating at a second angular velocity, thereby applying a force on the wearable
device
