The loads acting on mechanical components are usually complex, and the more traditional fatigue analysis criteria may be non-conservative, especially in out-of-phase and non-proportional loadings.

Developing integrated joint actuators represents one of the most challenging engineering endeavors in modern robotics. These actuators integrate motors, reducers, encoders, and drivers into compact ...

During Summer 2024 I updated my RS232 library for Arduinos to control 1 ... n FAULHABER MotionControllers from an Arduino using the Serial1 - if available on the Arduino. While doing so I updated my ...

Functions to go a specified distance: Driving speed PWM (2.0 V) is the PWM value to use for driving a fixed distance. If it is set higher than RAMP_VALUE_OFFSET_SPEED_PWM (2.3 V), the software ...

It enables you to easily create MIDI controllers or instruments with very few lines of code. It supports digital inputs, like pushbuttons and switches, analog inputs, like faders, potentiometers, ...

Adjusting magnetization orienting and conformal assembling of high-coercivity micro-magnets at the microscale remains challenging, despite long-standing demand for space-resolved magnetic modulation ...

This paper describes the development and implementation of a control system for a direct current (DC) motor using the Arduino Uno microcontroller, based on the speed and direction control of the motor ...

Touch screen head units are pretty much the norm these days. Many compromise with annoying on-screen volume controls or tiny buttons. If you find yourself with such a unit, you might like to hack in a ...

The monitoring of slopes’ dynamics is essential to ensure the safety of infrastructures exposed to landslide risk and to develop mitigation strategies. However, it is not always possible to perform ...

Modular IoT hardware developer, M5Stack, has released a new programmable robot base based on the STM32F030F4 microcontroller with LEGO and Arduino compatibility. The M5Stack BugC2 is “compatible with ...

The product we are reviewing today is the “MaTouch ESP32-S3 Rotary IPS Display with Touch 2.1” ST7701″ from Makerfabs which offers an alternative to the MaTouch_ESP32-S3 4-inch Display Demo Kit that ...
