Planar Motor with Integrated Position Detection

The idea to utilize waves in elastic solids for generating rotational motion goes back to Sashida (1982) and has become widespread in mechatronic systems, for instance in photo cameras for focusing the lenses.

The basic idea behind the so called travelling-wave-type-motor are the elliptic trajectories of the surface points in the stator.
