When [Michael Rechtin] learned about Radial Vector Reducers, the underlying research math made his head spin, albeit very slowly. Realizing that it’s essentially a cycloidal drive meshed with a ...

We present a flyscan compatible acquisition scheme for three-modal X-Ray Computed Tomography (CT) with two-dimensional phase sensitivity. Our approach is demonstrated using a “beam tracking” setup, ...

Brandon Lai] is hoping to build a humanoid robot. To that end, he’s going to need some actuators, and decided to design his ...

Gearboxes let engineers adjust servomotors’ operating speed and resulting torque. But understanding the two major types will lead to lower costs and better performance. Engineers have long used ...

In the rapidly evolving world of robotics, the demand for high-performance and reliable motion components has never been more critical. With the advent of Cone Drive’s cutting-edge Cycloidal Gearing ...

A cycloidal gearbox is built layer by layer — rollers, eccentric bearings, and cycloidal discs fitted together with precision to create one of the most compact and high-torque gear reduction systems ...

UK researchers have developed a new CT scanning method that produces the same image quality while also reducing radiation dose, according to a study published in Physical Review Applied. The technique ...

In x-ray computed tomography (CT), the achievable image resolution is typically limited by several pre-fixed characteristics of the x-ray source and detector. Structuring the x-ray beam using a mask ...
