PORTAL DEVELOPMENT KIT - PRELIMINARY SPECIFICATIONS (09/23)
Kinemaniacs - Portal Development Kit
Revolutionizing the boundaries of motion simulation.
Current Features: High Payload Capacity: A payload of up to approximately 250kg, ensuring simulations remain consistent irrespective of weight constraints.
High-Performance Motors: Customized hoverboard motors transformed into efficient 21-bit servo motors, designed for precision and power.
Precision Motion: Micron resolution platform positioning accuracy achieved through 21-bit encoders, ensuring each movement is precise to the very bit.
Advanced Dual Motor Controllers: Utilizes oDrive controllers for advanced Field Oriented Control (FOC), delivering smoother and more accurate motion simulation.
Pneumatic Compensation System: Seamlessly integrates three individually ballasted industrial pneumatic pistons to counteract gravitational forces, enabling higher responsiveness and longevity of the motors.
Six Degrees of Freedom (6-DOF): Offers full range and granularity of motion, spanning all translational and rotational motions, enabling the simulation of all kinds of vehicles (terrestrial, aerial, marine).
Energy Recuperation and Efficiency: By incorporating a high-current capable energy storage subsystem, the simulator can recuperate and reuse both kinetic and dynamic energy, minimizing losses and increasing efficiency. The system requires single phase power even in 110v countries.
Cost-Effective: Priced at approximately $3500 for qualified developers, offering unmatched value.
