WHITE PAPER
M3 Motion Modules Solve Challenges for Virtual Reality / Extended Reality System Designers
|
|
Extended reality (XR), virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR) and mixed reality (MR) often require precision motion embedded in the system. The challenge is keeping all of the motion components small, lightweight, and low in their power needs. This is especially true for wearable devices.
M3 Motion Modules solve these challenges. They are lightweight and small in size. They use low power. All processing is embedded in the module, so no external control board is needed. They are easy to integrate, so you can implement motion features that enhance the quality and comfort of the XR experience.
Applications for M3 Motion Modules in XR systems include:
-
Vergence - accommodation conflict resolution in binocular vision with fixed wearable projectors
-
Active dimming via uniform shutter motion
-
High-density haptic actuation with multiple actuators providing pressure on the body for a more immersive experience
-
Foveation using a large-aperture, two-axis steering mirror to place the highest-resolution image where the wearer is looking at any given instant.

New Scale Patents “Pseudo Voltage Control” for Piezoelectric Motion Systems
|
|
The company’s 22nd patent improves speed control and reduces power consumption over a wide range of input voltages for piezoelectric motors
New Scale Technologies has been issued its 22nd patent for micro motion system technology and applications. The innovative new control technique enables the company’s patented SQUIGGLE® and UTAF piezoelectric micro motors to operate at lower power over a wider range of operating conditions, including variations in temperature, friction and battery voltage.
The company has dubbed the innovation “Pseudo Voltage Control (PVC)” because it emulates the speed control achieved when the drive circuit input voltage (supply voltage) is changed, but without the extra space, cost and complexity.
|
|
The patented PVC technique is used in many of the company’s standard M3 micro motion modules and custom motion systems. |
