the error that drives a servomechanism can be seen as a difference between a pair of analogous concepts in a servomechanism: the current state and the...

rotation. Many engines are also fitted with a manifold vacuum-operated servomechanism to provide additional rotation of the plate's position (within limits)...

system, the wheel brake cylinders of a vehicle are operated through a servomechanism, offering precise and responsive braking. The SBC system was first introduced...

of cybernetics, he hypothesized that a human behaves basically as a servomechanism that controlled at discrete points in time. He influenced Warren McCulloch...

feedback loop, to maintain the direction set by the steersman. In servomechanisms, the speed or position of an output, as determined by a sensor, is...
