Flexible Joint Demo Movie This system is similar in nature to the control problems encountered in large geared robot joints where flexibility is exhibited in the gearbox.
Linear Flexible Joint (LFJ) Demo Movie A solid aluminum cart is driven by a rack and pinion mechanism using a 6V DC motor, ensuring consistent and continuous traction.
Position Servo Demo Movie A solid aluminum cart is driven by a rack and pinion mechanism using a 6V DC motor, ensuring consistent and continuous traction.
Inverted Pendulum (IP) Demo Movie A classic inverted pendulum, this experiment features a solid aluminum cart driven by a rack and pinion mechanism using a 6V DC motor, ensuring consistent and continuous traction.
Self-Erecting IP Demo Movie A solid aluminum cart is driven by a rack and pinion mechanism using a 6V DC motor, ensuring consistent and continuous traction.
2 DOF Robot Module Demo Movie This system is similar to the kinematic problems encountered in the control of larger 6 DOF robots including singularities.
3 DOF Planar Pantograph Demo Movie The planar twin-pantograph robot was originally designed and constructed by Prof. Tim Salcudean (at the University of British Columbia) to perform research in haptics.
2 DOF Rotary Gantry Demo Movie This experiment demonstrates the control problems associated with the swinging load of large gantry cranes used in construction.
