It takes considerable time and effort to manufacture “perfect” surfaces. The mirrors on NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope, with a surface area of about 25 m 2 and finished to accuracies of 25 nm, took ...

Direct drives place rigorous demands on position-signal quality. Optimum measuring signals increase the quality of the machined workpiece surface, reduce vibration in the machine frame, stop excessive ...

Motion blur can be caused by interpolating frames, algorithms can help with this problem. The BBC has always pushed boundaries to achieve better video quality for both streaming and broadcasting - one ...

For the first time ever high-resolution sine-to-digital converter iC-NQC provides the microelectronics industry with a BiSS C slave protocol that enables bidirectional data exchange at the same time ...

The BBC has always pushed boundaries to achieve better video quality for both streaming and broadcasting - one example is the BBC’s contribution to the Ultra High Definition (UHD) standard. Many TVs ...

A high-accuracy 20-bit resolution quasi-absolute encoder with DSP-based signal processing is housed in a dc stepper motor assembly, as shown in Fig. 1. Able to operate in a temperature range between ...

The iC-PXL3212 from iC-Haus is an optical, reflective, lensless encoder IC with integrated HD phased-array photo sensors and a blue LED chip. For the latest generation of these encoder ICs, the chip ...

From pan-tilt-zoom cameras to the most highly sophisticated mini robots on the market, a wide array of today’s technologies incorporate some form of motion control system. At the heart of these ...
