Use of Chaos to Improve Equipments

  • Chapter
Device Applications of Nonlinear Dynamics

Part of the book series: Understanding Complex Systems ((UCS))

Abstract

In this communication three applications where the use of chaos improves the device are dealt with. The first application concerns the use of chaos to drive sonar sensors in multi-user scenarios. The second application deals with the use of chaos to enhance motion control of a microrobot. The third application deals with a new synchronization scheme for chaotic systems.
