Phase I Projects

Facebook X LinkedIn Email
Boston Micromachines Corp. of Cambridge, Mass, a microelectromechanical systems-based deformable mirror provider, has received two Phase I contracts totaling about $200,000 from NASA’s Small Business Innovation Research Program to further space imaging research. The first project is to develop a compact, ultralow-power, high-voltage multiplexed driver suitable for integration with the mirrors in space-based wavefront control applications. The other is for an enhanced fabrication development process for the high-actuator-count deformable mirrors required for wavefront control in space-based...Read full article

    actuator
    An actuator is a mechanical or electromechanical device that is responsible for moving or controlling a mechanism or system. It converts various forms of energy (such as electrical, hydraulic, pneumatic, or thermal energy) into mechanical motion. Actuators are widely used in various industries and applications where precise control and movement are required. Functionality: Actuators are used to initiate or control motion by converting energy into mechanical force or displacement. They can...
