Stewart Platform
A Stewart Platform is a type of parallel manipulator that consists of a fixed base and a movable platform connected by six adjustable legs. Each leg can change its length independently, allowing the platform to move in three-dimensional space. This design enables precise control over the platform's position and orientation, making it useful in various applications.
Commonly used in robotics, flight simulators, and virtual reality systems, the Stewart Platform provides a stable and flexible way to simulate motion. Its ability to replicate complex movements makes it valuable in fields like aerospace, where it can mimic the dynamics of an aircraft or spacecraft during training.
