RLS Encoders and Renishaw Help Place Dynisma in Pole Position
Renishaw and RLS provided magnetic encoders and technical support to British-based Dynisma for its latest dynamic motion simulator designed for applications in motorsport and beyond. Watch the video to learn how Renishaw and RLS helped find and implement the best encoder solution for Dynisma’s application.

00:00:32 is a technology that enables for the first time Motorsport teams and Automotive customers to carry out more realistic and higher Fidelity tests than they've ever been able to before we approached renishaw for a specific requirement on a previous system and had great technical support from them and they actually recommended the na 11. the main requirement for the original system
00:00:53 and for dmz1 was that we needed an encoder that gave us absolute feedback and incremental feedback in the same read head so the encoder signals are connected to back off safety slices as they're called and they're fed into our safety program so we monitor the the position and the velocity of the system as a result we can safely shut down the system if it
00:01:15 exceeds its safe performance envelope safety is a top priority for us in the design of our simulators and the la11s and the feedback they provide to that are a key part of it the unique characteristics of this technology are its high bandwidth and it's very low latency this fundamentally means that our customers are able to put more information through their motion
00:01:36 generator providing a more realistic and immersive scenario than they've ever been able to before scenarios that we can simulate with our motion generator include vehicle Dynamics vehicle ride so the vertical dynamics of the vehicle including rough terrain off-road surfaces and how the vehicle will react if the surface is wet or if it is dry is always focused on developing and
00:01:59 increasing our product development roadmap so we have plans to continue to evolve our technology for years to come and we look forward to working with renishaw and RLS on future product developments [Music]
