Rear Screen Projection TV
A better image enhances the viewing experience. The quality of the projection optics is a decisive factor. Elliptec’s technology doubles the vertical resolution of DLP-based rear screen projection units. The Elliptec Actuator A10E tilts a mirror by one tenth of a degree to shift the projected image vertically by up to one line. This effect causes line-interlacing and creates a smoother, yet true-to-detail digital image.

Miniaturization
The accurate reproduction of features is essential in miniature scale models.  The same is true for their functionality. The Elliptecmotor is used as a drive system in a number of scale model products.

Gebr. Märklin und Cie. GmbH, Göppingen, uses the Elliptecmotor in their train model series 103 (H0 gauge) to realistically raise and lower a pantograph. In another model, a service locomotive, three Elliptecmotors raise and lower the pantograph and raise and turn a service platform. Several mobile crane units have been equipped with Elliptecmotors to achieve specific control functions with only few extra parts: raising the boom, rotating the driver cabin, raising and lowering the load hook.  Due to the intrinsic friction clutch of the Elliptecmotor, this “toy” is also safe for children.
