Excerpt from The Technical World, Vol. 1: August, 1904
The gyroscope, commonly known as the Obry gear, is, as the latter name sug gests, not the invention of Mr. Vvhite head and, wonderful as the diving mech anism is, the Obry gear is still more so, having done more to widen the range of the torpedo and to make it more cer tainly formidable than any other of its marvelous mechanical features.
