Intelligent Actuators - Ways to Autonomous Actuating Systems

IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 1992
Abstract The integration of microelectronics within the actuator allows to not only replace the analog position controller but to add several functions which give the actuator more intelligent functions. The actuator control is performed in different levels and includes adaptive nonlinear control, optimization of speed and precision, supervision and ...

Collective Actuation

The International Journal of Robotics Research, 2008
Modular robot designers confront inherent tradeoffs between size and power. Smaller, more numerous modules increase the adaptability of a given volume or mass of robot, allowing the aggregate robot to take on a wider variety of configurations, but do so at a cost of reducing the power and complexity budget of each module.

Eye as an Actuator

2006
The I4Control® device is a new type of computer peripheral enabling non-contact control of a personal computer through eye (or head) movement. The solution emulates the computer mouse and consequently it gives its user direct access to any mouse controlled SW system.

Smart Actuators for Colonoscope Actuation

The International Conference on Electrical Engineering, 2014
In recent years, much has been studied on the colonoscope because it is a very important tool for diagnosing colon cancer, which is the second leading cause of cancer in the developed countries. Colonoscopy is one of the most technically demanding endoscopic examinations in the modern health service.

The actuator surface

1984
An actuator surface can be defined as a two dimensional geometric region in a fluid at which a discontinuity in any flow property can occur [26]. We confine ourselves to a more restricted definition. We will use the term actuator surface for a two dimensional region in a fluid on which an external force field is concentrated. At this surface we have to
