Students in Sweden Simulate a Labyrinth
|
 Want to play a virtual labyrinth game? Prof. Bo Wahlberg from Kungliga Tekniska Hogskolan (KTH), Sweden asked his students this question - only they had to build the game by themselves. Students gained practical knowledge and hands-on experience working on the project, using Quanser's Engineering Trainers ( QET). Morover - they had fun learning! Watch their video now! |
| UAV Research Draws Media Interest |
 Unmanned Autonomous Vehiclesh (UAV) have a wide range of applications - that is what Dr. Ernest Earon, Senior R&D Engineer from Quanser recently explained on a City TV's morning program. And Design Engineering got interested too. Learn more about this exciting research project, that will soon bring an amazing tool to UAV research and educational labs. Watch the video clip of the latest UAV tests.

| The First Visual-Based Rotary Challenge |
Do you know that Quanser has a ping-pong table where Quanser employees can refresh their minds playing a game? Maybe that's where the idea of the new rotary challenge - 2DOF Ball Balancer originated. Watch two short video clips to see how with the help of two SRV02 modules and a camera a ping-pong ball moves in designated path - or doesn't move at all. |
