Gamma-Bar Conventional Wheel
There is an interesting wheel which may appear to accelerate for a short time, using a gamma (half-T) shaped bar that is lifted at below center when the weight of the wheel falls on it. The gamma-bar then applies leverage, potentially contributing to acceleration. While not 100% a success so far, there were some good signs that this may have applications in mechanics somewhere.
