We present a suite of algorithms and tools for model-predictive control of sensor/actuator systems with embedded microcontroller units (MCU). These MCUs can be colocated with sensors and actuators, ...

The need to create more viable soft sensors is increasing in tandem with the growing interest in soft robots. Several sensing methods, like capacitive stretch sensing and intrinsic capacitive ...

In this chapter, I will present a few useful “cookbook” applications for real-time control circuits designed to perform some specific low-level task and interface with a master controller for ...

CTS Corporation (NYSE:CTS) develops precision electronic components and sensors, delivering advanced technology solutions and ...

DANBURY, Conn. — Now available, Belimo stand-alone airflow measurement and control actuators with digital communications for rotary, linear, and induct applications. Select actuators have pressure ...

Cambridge Mechatronics, a specialist in Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) technology, has launched a sensor shift actuator for optical image stabilisation (OIS). With smartphone cameras adopting many of the ...

Let’s take a look at sensors, actuators and annunciators separately. There are a variety of RFID transponders on the market with integrated temperature, moisture, radiation and motion sensors built ...

As you accelerate down the road and use your gas pedal to throttle in the appropriate amount of energy, you expect a smooth implementation from your foot to the motor. The electronic throttle control ...
