Display with robotic pixels
(2011)Techniques are disclosed for controlling robot pixels to display a visual representation of an input. The input to the system could be an image of a face, and the robot pixels deploy in a physical arrangement to display a visual representation of the face, and would change their physical arrangement over time to represent changing facial expressions. The robot pixels function as a display device for a given allocation of robot pixels. ...Patent -
Method and Device for Multiple-Frequency Tracking of Oscillating Systems
(2015)A method to measure the vibrational characteristics of an oscillating system (1) uses a control system (6,7a, 7b, 7c). The oscillating system comprises a resonator, at least one vibration exciter and at least one sensor. The resonator is excited by the vibration exciter, and the motion of the resonator is measured by the sensor. The control system uses the sensor to control the motion of the resonator by the vibration exciter. The motion ...Patent -
