Just to further beat a dead horse....


A gimbal is a mount that attaches on two side of a device to allow it to swing back and forth. Ovens on a sailboat are gimbal mounted so they stay level as the boat heals over.

A 3D gimbal is a mount that mounts on four sides of a device to allow it to swing in all directions. Think those old school cup holders that could swing freely; like for a motorcycle.

Gyroscopic stabilization is a combination of sensors and motors that detects the input position (the mount point or handle in this case) and keeps the output (the camera in this case) in the same position.

So you are all correct. It is a gyroscopically-stabilized 3D gimbal mount. Most people have just shortened that to "gimbal" because no one makes a non-gyro-stabilized 3D version camera mount.

Yeah...¿don't they use the same technology on the GoPro and the **** industry?
