With help from precision bearings manufacturer The Barden Corporation (UK) Ltd, a team of English students have set a new world record time for their dragster and picked up four prizes at the recent ‘F1 in Schools’ National Finals at the NEC, Birmingham.

Trevor Morris, Product Engineering Manager at The Barden Corporation (UK) Limited, discusses how super precision bearings are helping to guarantee the accuracy and flexibility of the latest articulated arms used in surgical and industrial robotics.

LPRS is providing Diktron Developments Ltd with a wireless enhancement to a very successful lone worker and emergency service tracking and location system.

Altium is again sponsoring the FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC). FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) is a not-for-profit organization founded by inventor Dean Kamen to inspire young people’s interest and participation in science and technology. The FRC is an annual event that challenges teams of students to develop a robot in a six-week time frame using a standard kit of parts and a common set of rules.

Engineering students from the Robotics & Mechanisms Laboratory (RoMeLa) at Virginia Tech have developed a bipedal humanoid robot using the National Instruments LabVIEW graphical system design platform. The Dynamic Anthropomorphic Robot with Intelligence (DARwIn) was originally developed to study human locomotion for the research and development of prosthetic limbs. DARwIn achieves full range of motion and accurately imitates human movement so...

Inertial Aerosystems have introduced a new high performance micromachined angular rate sensor primarily for demanding military applications. Designated the QRS116, it is manufactured by U.S. based Systron Donner Inertial (SDI). It offers improved noise, faster start up and unprecedented angular random walk and in run bias stability.
