  2. 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.

  3. 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 ...

  4. Servomechanism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Servomechanism

    Other examples are fly-by-wire systems in aircraft which use servos to actuate the aircraft's control surfaces, and radio-controlled models which use RC servos for the same purpose. Many autofocus cameras also use a servomechanism to accurately move the lens. A hard disk drive has a magnetic servo system with sub-micrometer positioning accuracy ...

  5. 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 ...

  6. Radio control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_control

    Radio control (often abbreviated to RC) is the use of control signals transmitted by radio to remotely operate a device. Examples of simple radio control systems are garage door openers and keyless entry systems for vehicles, in which a small handheld radio transmitter unlocks or opens doors.

  7. Remote control animal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remote_control_animal

    Several studies have examined the remote control of rats using micro-electrodes implanted into their brains and rely on stimulating the reward centre of the rat. Three electrodes are implanted; two in the ventral posterolateral nucleus of the thalamus which conveys facial sensory information from the left and right whiskers, and a third in the medial forebrain bundle which is involved in the ...

  8. Radio-controlled car - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio-controlled_car

    Servo savers are integrated into all steering linkages and some nitro throttle linkages. A servo saver is a flexible link between the servo and its linkage that protects the servo's internal gears from damage during impacts or stress.

  9. Artificial life - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artificial_life

    However, different opinions about artificial life's potential have arisen: The strong alife (cf. Strong AI) position states that "life is a process which can be abstracted away from any particular medium" (John von Neumann) [citation needed]. Notably, Tom Ray declared that his program Tierra is not simulating life in a computer but synthesizing ...
