The 2 DOF Inverted Pendulum/Gantry module is ideal to introduce more advanced principles of robotics. You can use it to demonstrate real-world control challenges encountered in aerospace engineering applications, such as rocket stabilization during takeoff.
-
The 2 DOF Robot module is ideal to introduce students to the fundamental and intermediate principles of robotics. You can use it to demonstrate real-world control challenges, such as pick-and-place robots used in manufacturing lines.
-
The principles demonstrated by the Quanser 3 DOF Gyroscope are relevant in technologies used to control orientation in sea, air and space vehicles.
-
The 3 DOF Helicopter experiment provides a benchtop model of a Tandem rotor helicopter. It can be used to understand and develop control laws for a vehicle that has dynamics representative of a dual rotor rigid body helicopter, or any device with similar dynamics.
-
The 3 DOF Hover experiment provides an economical testbed to understand and develop control laws for flight dynamics and control of vehicles with vertical lift-off.
-
The Quanser Active Mass Damper (AMD) is a bench-scale model of a tall building equipped with an active damper. It is ideal for studying the dynamic response of tall structures to high winds, seismic ground effects, and other disturbances, and for investigating control techniques to actively dampen the deflection of structures.
-
The Active Suspension Experiment teaches cutting-edge technology that has brought a new generation of vehicles to life.
-
The AMPAQ-L2 linear current amplifier is ideal for mechatronic systems requiring responsive current control, such as haptics or robotics platforms, or other complex controls configurations often used for teaching and research.
-
The AMPAQ-L4 linear current amplifier is ideal for mechatronic systems requiring responsive current control, such as haptics or robotics platforms, or other complex controls configurations often used for teaching and research.
