In the world of electronics, a robot isn’t really a robot unless it moves — and this is where precise motor control comes into play. Robots designed to lift heavy loads may use high-torque AC ...

A self-balancing robot is a great way to get introduced to control theory and robotics in general. The ability for a robot to sense its position and its current set of circumstances and then to make a ...

[professor churlz] wrote in to let us know his results with modifying radio control ESCs (Electronic Speed Controllers) for use in a large (250lb range) BattleBot’s drivetrain. It’s a very long and ...

A robotic manipulator is programmable on three or more axes that specify the movements of a robot, either the robotic arms or body. These robotic manipulators are automatically controlled and ...

Hyundai Mobis is stepping up its push into next-generation mobility, positioning robotics and software-defined vehicles (SDVs ...

The transition to Industry 4.0 has accelerated the adoption of robots, cobots (cooperative robots that interact with humans in a common workspace), and other advanced machines on the factory floor to ...

Automating the factory floor is a growing trend across the industrial space. It’s not hard to understand why, since such applications help improve efficiency and production rates. To create the ...

This helps ensure that working environments stay safe for humans without compromising productivity. Safety Motion uses two optical sensors, one at the top and one at the bottom of the cell, to detect ...

The HEJ 90 combines a brushless motor, precision gearbox, encoder, servo drive and thermal monitoring into a sealed joint ...
