Actuators knowledge base

Actuators/motors in humanoid robots are essential for success. They are responsible for all aspects regarding movement; strength of movement, repeatability and accuracy. However, by improving the mechanical joints, power delivery, aiding parts like springs and ball bearings we can improve motion. Nevertheless motors are the most essential improvement to aid better movement.

In this group of pages we analyze, collect data, document findings and collaborate on choices for actuators in pib.

This page is created to follow on PR-415: Change motors used in pib to more powerful, durable and precise motorsDone .
