Science
A gyroscope can be defined as a wheel or disk that spins rapidly on an axle. When a gyroscope is spun, it would remain in that specific orientation and resist change (to that orientation) due to the angular momentum produced by the torque, rotational force, of the spinning wheel.
The gimbals are the support rings around the gyroscope that allows the innermost disk to be unaffected by the rotation of gimbals. They often come in sets of three to account for the x-, y-, and z-axis (also called Roll, Pitch, and Yaw).
A gyroscope is often used in aircraft and ships where they would experience tilting, and the gyroscope would be able to resist environmental changes and thus allow the user to set a reference point to what their orientation is. Three-axis gimbals are used as camera stabilizers.

Gimbal Stabilizer
Taking what we understand of gyroscopes, their components, and effects, a gyroscopic stabilizer can be created by using a three-axis gimbal. Gyroscopic stabilizers often are made with machinery that spins a gyroscope at high speed. But a simpler and cheaper method is using the gravity of an object to keep it perpendicular from the ground and a three-axis gimbal frame that tilts in opposite directions to counteract a disturbance in the object’s orientation.
neodymium disc magnets
Neodymium disc magnets are small magnets that can hold up large amounts of weight. They are an alloy of neodymium, boron, and iron, which allow them to “store impressive amounts of magnetic energy while being highly resistant to demagnetization” (source: apexmagnets.com). They are small and thus can fit into necessary pieces of the Gyralign. As a result of magnetic attraction, the attachable pieces of Gyralign can be easily assembled by people with disabilities.
Neodymium disc magnets can be smaller than pennies and still lift a few pounds
