Motion Systems

In its most simple form, Motion Systems are a mechanical system that moves.  A motion system is controlled by a motion controller.  Motion controllers used to be completely mechanical, but now are primarily focused on converting electrical input into a mechanical output.  A great example of this is a motor controller.  Motor controllers receive an input, usually a person pressing the gas pedal or pushing the throttle, control the battery draw, and send it to the motor to convert it into a rotational motion.  Control units are typically given by a manufacturer or supplier along with the purchase of a motor.  It is our job to program the motion system to act the way it is intended.
