  2. Fuller calculator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuller_calculator

    The Fuller calculator, sometimes called Fuller's cylindrical slide rule, is a cylindrical slide rule with a helical main scale taking 50 turns around the cylinder. This creates an instrument of considerable precision – it is equivalent to a traditional slide rule 25.40 metres (1,000 inches) long.

  3. Manipulator (device) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manipulator_(device)

    In robotics, a manipulator is a device used to manipulate materials without direct physical contact by the operator. The applications were originally for dealing with radioactive or biohazardous materials, using robotic arms , or they were used in inaccessible places.

  4. Tinkercad - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tinkercad

    Tinkercad's Circuits section is a browser-based electronic circuit simulator that supports Arduino Uno microcontrollers, Micro:bit boards, or ATtiny chips. Code can be created using graphical CodeBlocks, [13] pieces of code that can be easily arranged with the mouse, or text-based code.

  5. Parallel manipulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_manipulator

    A manipulator can move an object with up to 6 degrees of freedom (DoF), determined by 3 translation 3T and 3 rotation 3R coordinates for full 3T3R mobility. However, when a manipulation task requires less than 6 DoF, the use of lower mobility manipulators, with fewer than 6 DoF, may bring advantages in terms of simpler architecture, easier control, faster motion and lower cost.

  6. Industrial robot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_robot

    In this method, one user holds the robot's manipulator, while another person enters a command which de-energizes the robot causing it to go into limp. The user then moves the robot by hand to the required positions and/or along a required path while the software logs these positions into memory.

  7. Axial engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axial_engine

    The key advantage of the axial design is that the cylinders are arranged in parallel around the output/crank shaft in contrast to radial and inline engines, both types having cylinders at right angles to the shaft. As a result, it is a very compact, cylindrical engine, allowing variation in compression ratio of the engine while running. In a ...
