"Unraveling the Mystery of the Spinning Egg Phenomenon"
The Motion Zero is a mesmerizing device created by David Windestål, Giacomo Di Muro, and Chad Kapper. It features a free-spinning shiny metal egg that stands on its end when spun fast enough. The egg is embedded with magnets to act as a rotor, while PCB coils create the stator. Hall effect sensors are used to control the position of the egg and adjust the rotation speed. Designed with meditation in mind, the device includes a ripple-patterned aluminum cover with ball bearings as a control interface. The main controller is an ESP32 module. The Motion Zero has already exceeded its funding goal on Kickstarter.
