In this project, I'll make a small circuit capable of controlling a servo, it is a servo tester made out of a 555 timer IC.

It pays to know what avenues to approach when optimizing servos for qualities such as speed-of-response or accuracy. Here is a quick overview of where to start. Tricks of the trade let designers ...

[Brian] is using an Arduino to control multiple servo motors. This is nothing new and has been happening since the earliest days of Arduino. But rather than develop a project and share it, [Brian] did ...

Robots are cool, so check out [Atlin Anderson]’s Spiderbot (video, embedded below) which can be made with 3D printed parts, hobby servos, and ESP32-CAM module for control and a first-person view.

Condoms are effective barrier methods that help prevent pregnancy and protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs). But it’s essential to use them every time and know how to use them ...

One of the more critical decisions engineers can make when designing any type of motion control process is choosing the motor. Getting the right motor, both in terms of type and size, is imperative to ...

Aurelio Banda, vice president of sales and marketing for Beckhoff Automation North America, shows the company’s new servo drives and terminals, HMIs, and TwinCAT software connectivity using OPC UA for ...

It is possible to economically produce non-rotational symmetric surfaces including freeform surfaces on Precitech’s two-axis diamond turning lathes, the Precitech Nanoform 200, 350 and 700 systems ...

The first step is a more secure rendering engine for Firefox. But after Servo, will Mozilla next rewrite SpiderMonkey in Rust? Mozilla is showing off early builds of Servo, its new experimental ...

A motor-drive servo amplifier's output voltage has a fundamental frequency and amplitude that corresponds to the motor speed, torque, and number of motor poles. PWM amplifiers, by their nature, also ...
