Controllers for squiggle motors

SQUIGGLE motor drive electronics generate the ultrasonic signals to drive a SQUIGGLE motor based on the input from a PC, analog input, or manual handset. The controllers also accept input from position sensors for closed-loop motion control.
Control the SQUIGGLE motor’s motion using:

  • Computer control
  • Analog control
  • Manual control
