Applications that require precise information on the linear or angular movement of an object rely on the accuracy of motion sensors within.

By integrating the linear and angular motion sensors, ST says that performance and reliability are improved while the size reduction opens the door for high precision gesture and motion recognition in ...

It’s all too common to forget about abbe errors when designing linear positioning systems. An ounce of prevention, though, can be better than a pound of cure.

These actuators often rely on four-point contact ball bearings and deep groove ball bearings to support the angular motion that transfers into linear motion within the actuator.

The inner ear (see image below) is particularly important because it contains sensors for both angular motion (the semicircular canals) and linear motion (the otoliths).

ATD application test results verify that the IETL exhibits both low cross-axis angular sensitivity and low linear acceleration sensitivity. These are important features for angular motion measurement ...

How optical rotary encoders can provide real-time motion feedback on motion applications using stepper motor-driven linear actuators.
