What is the function of a servo motor?

A servo motor is an electric motor with a built in rotation sensor, they are needed for robotics. Say a robot moves its arm by turning a servo motor, the motor would send information concerning the degree of rotation on its axis back to the robot so the robot can keep tabs on the position of its arm, so if something bumps its arm it will know it and so-on.


Does the servo motor contain the servo?

A "servo motor" and a "servo" are the same thing. Servos are constructed from three basic pieces; a motor, a potentiometer (variable resister) that is connected to the output shaft, and a control board. The potentiometer allows the control circuitry to monitor the current angle of the servo motor. The motor, through a series of gears, turns the output shaft and the potentiometer simultaneously. The potentiometer is fed into the servo control circuit and when the control circuit detects that the position is correct, it stops the motor. If the control circuit detects that the angle is not correct, it will turn the motor the correct direction until the angle is correct. Normally a servo is used to control an angular motion of between 0 and 180 degrees. It is not mechanically capable (unless modified) of turning any farther due to the mechanical stop build on to the main output gear.
