  2. Terraria - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terraria

    Terraria: Otherworld was a separate game in the series which was announced in February 2015 and planned for release later that year. [66] Otherworld tasked the player with trying to purify the world of the Corruption, which was to be achieved mainly by finding and activating "purifying towers" that push back the spread of the Corruption.

  4. Rotary actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_actuator

    A rotary actuator is an actuator that produces a rotary motion or torque. The simplest actuator is purely mechanical, where linear motion in one direction gives rise to rotation. The most common actuators are electrically powered; others may be powered pneumatically or hydraulically , or use energy stored in springs .

  5. Scratch drive actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scratch_Drive_Actuator

    The actuator sits on top of a substrate that has a thin insulating dielectric layer on top. A voltage is applied between the actuator and the substrate, and the resulting potential pulls the body of the actuator downwards. When this occurs, the brush is pushed forwards by a small amount, and energy is stored in the strained actuator.

  6. Comb drive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comb_drive

    Comb-drives are microelectromechanical actuators, often used as linear actuators, which utilize electrostatic forces that act between two electrically conductive combs. Comb drive actuators typically operate at the micro- or nanometer scale and are generally manufactured by bulk micromachining or surface micromachining a silicon wafer substrate.

  7. Parallel manipulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_manipulator

    A further advantage of the parallel manipulator is that the heavy actuators may often be centrally mounted on a single base platform, the movement of the arm taking place through struts and joints alone. This reduction in mass along the arm permits a lighter arm construction, thus lighter actuators and faster movements.

  8. Linear actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_actuator

    By connecting linkages to the nut, the motion can be converted to usable linear displacement. Most current actuators are built for high speed, high force, or a compromise between the two. When considering an actuator for a particular application, the most important specifications are typically travel, speed, force, accuracy, and lifetime.

  9. Drifting (motorsport) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drifting_(motorsport)

    Nearly all drivers move the hand brake location or add an extra hydraulic hand brake actuator for greater braking force. Additional gauges are used to monitor boost levels , oil pressure and temperature, intake and coolant temperatures , and air-fuel ratio , among other data.
