Active vibration control

Active vibration control is like having a superpower to make things stop shaking or moving too much.

Imagine you're sitting in a car and it's shaking because of the bumpy road. You can't do anything to stop the shaking because you're just a kid sitting in a car. But with active vibration control, the car can sense the shaking and use special technology to stop the shaking. It's like a superhero power for the car!

Active vibration control works by using sensors to detect how much something is shaking. The sensors send information to a computer, which then tells the machine controlling the vibration to move in the opposite direction of the shaking. This helps to cancel out the shake and make things more still.

This technology is used in many things like airplanes, bridges, and even buildings. It can make things safer and prevent things from breaking or falling apart. So, when you see something that isn't shaking even though it should be, it's probably using active vibration control. It's like having a superpower to keep things still!
