Halcyonics is ALL about engineering. Check it out.
Halcyonics uses modern design tools, e.g. 3-D CAD modeling software. The key components of the active isolation system, sensors and actuators are positioned in the mechanical setup according to the modular design concept. Simulation tools are used to adapt controller parameters to the customized configuration.
How about that Wimbledon men's final? Phenomenal!
