An automatic toll gate system using Arduino revolutionises traditional toll collection by eliminating manual intervention. The “automatic toll gate system project” demonstrates how simple sensors and ...

Fossil fuels have been consumed rapidly over recent decades, and their availability is decreasing. Because of this, there is a growing focus on renewable energy sources. Solar energy is one of the ...

The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) defines a servo device as “an adjustable-speed AC power drive system that includes an AC motor integrated by feedback, a converter, and control, ...

Festo’s new stepper motor series — EMMT-ST — features absolute encoders, IP65 protection, holding brakes and control via a single cable. OEMs have the choice of an absolute single-turn encoder or ...

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 ...

Step motors provide accurate position control without the need for feedback, traditionally in open-loop control schemes. A stepper motor’s shaft normally makes discrete angular movements of ...

Step motors are a natural choice when design specs call for low-cost automation with accurate, open-loop control. But finding the right stepper for a given application can be a challenge. There’s a ...

Stepper and servo motors have different attributes when considered for motion applications. Torque curves play an important role in selecting the proper size and type of motor for an application.

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 ...
