Makerfabs has recently introduced Matouch 1.28-inch ToolSet_AC Dimmer an open-source ESP32-based AC voltage controller for dimming lights or adjusting motor speeds using phase-cut dimming. Built ...

This paper describes the development and implementation of a control system for a direct current (DC) motor using the Arduino Uno microcontroller, based on the speed and direction control of the motor ...

Air Traffic Control (ATC) audio from Wednesday’s collision between an Army Black Hawk helicopter and an American Airlines jet reveals the moments before and after controllers witnessed the disaster ...

The Arduino Opta micro programmable logic controller (PLC) provides a unique entry point into the automation field. Automation fields like smart homes, process controls, and robotics are project areas ...

To successfully integrate the drive into the system, the controller must provide full functionality for motor control. The more functions the drive itself can implement, the fewer add-ons and ...

Lika Electronic's AMM33 miniature encoder is equipped with a 6 mm blind hollow shaft and is ideally suited for integration into very small size motors. The SMAR1 off-axis encoder fits perfectly into ...

Speed control options and the idea of speed regulation vary for different motor types. In a DC motor, the operator or an automated control device must manually adjust the speed of the motor; in a ...

Abstract: In this work, the systematic accuracy error in velocity estimation induced by low resolution encoders in the velocity control of DC motors is addressed. For ...
