2. Servomotor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Servomotor

   A servomotor (or servo motor or simply servo) [1] is a rotary or linear actuator that allows for precise control of angular or linear position, velocity, and acceleration in a mechanical system. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It constitutes part of a servomechanism , and consists of a suitable motor coupled to a sensor for position feedback and a controller ...

3. Geneva drive - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geneva_drive

   The Geneva drive or Geneva mechanism is a gear mechanism that translates a continuous rotation movement into intermittent rotary motion. The rotating drive wheel is usually equipped with a pin that reaches into a slot located in the other wheel (driven wheel) that advances it by one step at a time. The drive wheel also has an elevated circular ...

   The grey/green cylinder is the brush-type DC motor. The black section at the bottom contains the planetary reduction gear, and the black object on top of the motor is the optical rotary encoder for position feedback. Small R/C servo mechanism. 1. electric motor 2. position feedback potentiometer 3. reduction gear 4. actuator arm

5. Servo (radio control) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Servo_(radio_control)

   The servo is controlled by three wires: ground, power, and control. The servo will move based on the pulses sent over the control wire, which set the angle of the actuator arm. The servo expects a pulse every 20 ms in order to gain correct information about the angle. The width of the servo pulse dictates the range of the servo's angular motion.

6. Servo control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Servo_control

   Servo and receiver connections A diagram showing typical PWM timing for a servomotor. Servo control is a method of controlling many types of RC/hobbyist servos by sending the servo a PWM (pulse-width modulation) signal, a series of repeating pulses of variable width where either the width of the pulse (most common modern hobby servos) or the duty cycle of a pulse train (less common today ...

7. Rotary encoder - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_encoder

   Brushless motor commutation. Built-in rotary encoders are used to indicate the angle of the motor shaft in permanent magnet brushless motors, which are commonly used on CNC machines, robots, and other industrial equipment. In such cases, the encoder serves as a feedback device that plays a vital role in proper equipment operation.
