Semiconductor

Controlling high speed motors (usually Brushless DC motors) in applications such as machine tool cutting, drilling, centrifuges, cryo-pumps, bar code readers, rotating marking and scanning systems, spin coating, and more.

The control of mechanisms used for electronics, motor, and textile production where an actuator head rapidly moves back and forth.

Mechanical devices that move orthogonally in three dimensions.

A general purpose motion technique utilizing a pre-stored look-up table of desired positions driven by an incoming command encoder datastream.

General purpose devices that operate in the vertical dimension and form the basis of storage and retrieval systems as well devices such as Semiconductor SMIF-pod access systems.

Motion control of automated microscopes, also called automated digital microscopes or more broadly automated microscopy.

Control methods associated with getting a robotic 'hand' to grip an object safely - applying neither too much or too little force.

Controlling wheels used to propel robotic devices such as warehouse robotics, rovers, agricultural robots, robotic lawn mowers and a wide array of mobile devices.
