Hi i want to work on robotic table tennis player. So i am confuse that which kind of motors should i use. I need high response motors.
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
Ok. I try to explain you.
1. We need to choose final year project For which i have to submit my report on it
2. The project we decided is robotic table tennis player
3. There will be camera and it will detect the motion of ball
4. According to this motion we need to move our rackets

So my question is What kind of motors do we need for Fast response and medium torque?

Regards

I maintain my answer from my previous post. Look up some brushless dc servo motors. Manufacturers websites typically have all the information you need, including peak torque and a torque vs. speed curve.
 


I would suggest considering motors that have high torque and fast response times. This will allow the robotic table tennis player to quickly react to the movements of the ball and return shots with precision. Additionally, motors with high precision and accuracy will also be important in order to accurately control the movements of the robotic player. It may also be beneficial to consider motors with variable speed control, as this can provide the flexibility needed for different types of shots in table tennis. Ultimately, it is important to carefully research and test different motor options to find the best fit for your specific project and goals.
