Exhibit Summary
360° Bicycle is a Mechanical Model interactive exhibit in the Mechanics in Motion category, designed for science centers, children’s museums, discovery centers, STEM learning centers and family entertainment centers. Built as a hands-on, mechanical & electromechanical display, it turns an abstract scientific concept into direct, interactive visitor exploration, and is engineered for durable, low-maintenance, high-traffic gallery use.
Scientific Principle
Also called a gravity-inertia bicycle, this ride uses Earth's gravity and the rider's shifting center of mass to drive wheels around a circular track. Periodic weight changes and inertia keep the cycle moving via a full vertical loop.
Operation
A visitor pedals and shifts their weight to ride the bicycle around a 360-degree vertical loop. The display demonstrates how gravity and inertia are harnessed for motion.
