Robots are developed for a wide variety of uses. These include assembly, welding, monitoring marine life, rescue and recovery and even vacuuming the floor. Because of this, there is a multitude of ...

The FOT variants of the KCI 1300 inductive encoders from Heidenhain can also serve as a bearing cover. A growing trend in encoder technology is the integration of additional sensors to add diagnostic ...

Looking to build robots without starting from scratch? These ready-made reference designsillustrate how to make robots work ...

Optical or magnetic linear encoders are traditionally used to provide position feedback in applications with frequent product changes or and sophisticated machining. Linear encoders improve the ...

Analog and digital optoelectronic sensors combine an LED and an optoelectronic integrated circuit in a compact package to enable optical encoders to provide absolute or incremental position detection ...

Building a 3D motor printed motor is one thing, but creating a completely custom servo motor with encoder requires some significant engineering. In the video after the break [365 Robots] takes us ...

Robot dogs can move efficiently, but not all that naturally -- and no, twerking doesn't count. Virginia Tech researchers think they can do better. They're developing a combination of algorithms and ...
