When engineers think of advances in motion control technology, they usually think of faster motors, improved accuracy, or seemingly never-ending improvements in MOSFET efficiency. While these advances ...

Monitoring takes the form of sensors and intelligent devices connected to a digital processor. These monitored values are used for computing and then controlling some sort of real-world action. Many ...

Using pulse outputs from a PLC is a cost-effective way to get simple motion. Most, if not all, PLC manufacturers provide a way to control servos and steppers using a pulse train signal. So when a ...

by Seth Colaner — Monday, June 24, 2013, 02:23 PM EDT Leap Motion has making a bit of noise in the computer industry, snagging a partnership with ASUS to bundle its controller with PCs, getting it ...

While the venerable computer mouse pre-dates many of its users, the simplistic two-dimensional pointing device still remains the de facto method for translating input from users to computers. In the ...

It isn’t uncommon to see a robot hand-controlled with a glove to mimic a user’s motion. [All Parts Combined] has a different method. Using a Leap Motion controller, he can record hand motions with no ...
