Encoders are the most widely used feedback devices for electric motor control, capable of delivering precise position and speed feedback for closed-loop performance. With numerous technology options ...

iC-RT2624, as it will be known, is aimed at both housed and kit encoders, and will achieve its 26bit resolution using interpolation with standard 26mm code discs, the company claims “even in demanding ...

Three magnet-free inductive position sensors from Renesas provide a cost-effective alternative to magnetic and optical ...

Renesas Electronics Corporation introduced a new family of magnet-free inductive position sensor (IPS) ICs that can be fully customized for various coil designs compatible with a wide range of ...

TL;DR: Researchers from the University of California developed Mic-E-Mouse, an AI-powered tool that exploits high-DPI optical sensors in gaming mice to eavesdrop on speech by detecting surface ...

With free-space optical communications in mind, researchers used a nanostructured birefringent metasurface to achieve a 16-fold increase in the corrected beam signal in mid-to-high-turbulence ...

Advances in linear motors and hybrid actuators are pushing motion systems toward higher precision, speed and efficiency. A ...

Abstract: Optical tactile sensors have recently become popular. They provide high spatial resolution, but struggle to offer fine temporal resolutions. To overcome this shortcoming, we study the idea ...

Here is how to implement a stepper motor to sense position and actively correct any error that might accrue during actuation.

Abstract: The advanced development of two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials in optical sensor fields has greatly enhanced the sensitivity, selectivity, and quick response for the detection of bioanalytes ...
