There are several laws of physics that are based on force. One of these is the well-known principle that when applied to any object of mass, force changes the velocity of the object.
There are other concepts related to force including torque, thrust, and drag – thrust increases the object’s velocity, while drag reduces velocity, and torque generates changes in the object’s rotational speed.
When there’s a balanced distribution of forces in the object, there is acceleration. If you want to monitor the force on an object, you need a device called a force sensor. [Read more…] about How Do Force Sensors Work? And What Are Their Benefits?
GPS and Bluetooth-enabled robotic lawn mowers are gaining rapid interest, and the market is set to grow to 3.6 times its current size by 2029, according to research by Future Market Insights.

The industrial automation sector is “paying the price for failing to think big and invest bigger”, according to a report by GlobalData.
The industrial automation sector was not in a great place before Covid-19 struck, having been slowed by flat capital expenditure and declining industrial production, says GlobalData, a leading data and analytics company.
The virus has since closed factory after factory worldwide with workers sent home. The reality is that despite much hype over the years, advanced factory automation has not been substituted for human workers at scale.
