Researchers created a system that enables makers to incorporate sensors directly into rotational mechanisms with only one pass in a 3D printer. This gives rotational mechanisms like gearboxes the ...
Manual steering gears predate the Model T era. The typical layout is a column and shaft leading from the steering wheel to a frame-mounted gear mechanism. This steering shaft rotates left and right, ...
Integrating sensors into rotational mechanisms could make it possible for engineers to build smart hinges that know when a door has been opened, or gears inside a motor that tell a mechanic how fast ...
