Linear ball bearings do not recirculate. Instead, they move half the distance that the slide moves so they need a long length to accommodate their motion.

Applications that require precise information on the linear or angular movement of an object rely on the accuracy of motion sensors within. Accelerometers and gyroscopes can be used to provide this ...

Discover how various linear motion mechanisms work together in a large machine to create seamless functionality. This video demonstrates the intricate design and engineering behind each mechanism ...

MEMS specialist STMicroelectronics has integrated a 3 axis digital accelerometer with a 2 axis analogue gyroscope in a single module. By integrating the linear and angular motion sensors, ST says that ...

As a result, the Kernel IMUs are ideal for a wide variety of applications such as autonomous vehicles, antenna and line of sight stabilizations systems, as well as buoy or boat motion monitoring.
