STARTUP IQ MOTION CONTROL IS REVOLUTIONIZING THE ROBOTICS INDUSTRY ONE MOTOR AT A TIME
Company releases its newest motor module: the Vertiq 6806
PHILADELPHIA, PA -- IQ Motion Control is a tech startup that delivers high performance motor modules for commercial UAV and robotics applications. The company spun out of the University of Pennsylvania's robotics lab and its mission is to democratize advanced motor control by bringing innovative calibration and control software to a rapidly evolving industry.
IQ Motion Control is excited to announce the launch of their latest motor module, the Vertiq 6806, on October 6, 2020. The Vertiq 6806 is the first commercial-grade UAV and robotics module in its class. Users will now be able to take advantage of IQ's advanced calibration and control software in a more powerful package. These modules were designed for high performance aerial and robotics applications with strict space and weight requirements. The modules are currently available for pre-order on Crowd Supply.
The combination of IQ's unique hardware design and proprietary software allows IQ motors to maximize torque output, efficiency, and precision, while minimizing motor vibration, cost, and footprint. With IQ's closed-loop motor control technology, UAVs will be able to change directions, stabilize, and brake 4x faster. The Vertiq 6806 was designed for UAV propulsion, but with IQ's position firmware, they are also the ideal servomotor for precision robotic applications. With smooth, high-torque motors, users will be able to build extremely compact, high-performance robotic devices.
Reliability is paramount in the commercial UAV and robotics industries. One of the biggest advantages the Vertiq 6806 has over competitive solutions (especially in the UAV space) is its ability to report a wide range of motor data. This advanced telemetry gives users the opportunity to monitor motor performance during operation and use the data for preventative maintenance.
IQ Motion Control's launch of the Vertiq 6806 is the next step in bringing the most advanced motor control technology to commercial UAVs and robotics devices.
