Welcome to New Scale News, your monthly update on piezoelectric motor technology and applications from New Scale Technologies.

SQUIGGLE motor on the tip of a finger
The SQUIGGLE motor was voted #1 best new electromechanical product of the quarter by EE Times readers in the Ultimate Products 3.2 awards. Reader comments include:

"The size is amazing. Many applications will become possible rather than impossible as before."

How are Ultimate Products selected? EE Times editors select up to 10 of the most significant products posted at www.eeProductCenter.com during the calendar quarter. They submit the products with editorial reviews to more than 1,000 selected, qualified readers, who score the products by technical significance and usability. The product ranked No. 1 in each category was judged as most technically significant for that category.

SQUIGGLE motor on a penny
In the recent issue of Electronic Products, New Scale's David Henderson compares piezo motors to other motor technologies for phone cameras, including miniature electromagnetic motors, voice coil actuators, liquid lenses, and piezo bimorph actuators.

He then compares two types of piezo motors that have been commercialized for phone camera applications: the direct-drive linear SQUIGGLE motor and a pusher-type motor.

Learn more about these motor types and their applications in mobile imaging. The pros and cons of different motor technologies are applicable to a wide range of other consumer electronic products, as well.
