World’s first tilted axis levitation and rotating DIY globe

Posted By: Gaurav Sood | Sep 1 2010

You might have seen plenty of DIY rotating globe projects, but this globe levitating and rotating on its axis is something different. In fact it is the World’s first wireless power transmittance and geared motor globe that levitates along tilted axis. Frequency generator for the globe’s movement is built around micro-controller and MOSFET circuit giving it a smooth motion while rotating along tilted axis, which could not be achieved by any other DIY projects earlier. Take a jump for the video and rough Globe project design schematic.

To maintain the center of gravity of the globe receiving coil, electrical components and tilted motor are fixed on the floating base. For more on this project jump over to Hacked Gadgets.
