Encoders are a vital component in many applications that require motion control and feedback information. Whether a system’s requirement is speed, direction, or distance, an encoder produces control ...

Getting accurate movement in robots and machines can be hard. Learn about a small, reliable sensor that makes control easier, ...

Melexis has announced the MLX90520 – a reference inductive encoder IC with 22-bit resolution for rotary & linear movement. The MLX90520 fulfills the demand for high-accuracy, cost-effective position ...

Last year, Geehy introduced the industry’s first dual-core Cortex-M52 real-time MCU, and has now followed up with the G32R430, an Arm Cortex-M52 Encoder ...

• The new mantra of position encoding is low-current drain. • Capacitive encoding is a way to realize low-power consumption without giving up resolution or accuracy, even at relatively low speeds.

A salt-grain-sized neural implant can record and transmit brain activity wirelessly for extended periods. Researchers at Cornell University, working with collaborators, have created an extremely small ...

An integrated mechanical brake, for which Schaeffler has filed a patent, forms a central part of the actuator’s safety concept. When the motor is de-energized, the brake securely holds the actuator – ...

Time is almost up on the way we track each second of the day, with optical atomic clocks set to redefine the way the world ...

Whether for drug screening or toxicity testing, stem cell-based 3D tissue models are key to biomedical research. However, ...

Caltech scientists have developed a way to guide light on silicon wafers with low signal loss approaching that of optical ...
