Mechatronic Component Solutions Inc.
Representing the Finest Innovative Products for Robotic and Automation Applications
We've been asked constantly: "What is that logo?"
Our explanation:
The approach to our business is to offer innovative products and ideas to develop and enhance your product or process . . . to assist you to ’perceive the next dimension’ of your design. Our logo demonstrates the ability to do just that.
For a more thorough (and somewhat overwhelming) explanation, please read on:
Our readily perceptible three dimensions are spatial, such as:
- length, width and height,
- latitude, longitude and altitude,
- or simply X, Y and Z.
The fourth dimension is time.
Here, Einstein’s theory of special relativity is conveniently formulated: the three ordinary dimensions of space are combined with a single dimension of time to form a four-dimensional manifold for representing space-time.
We as humans usually perceive space as a three-dimensional space, so long as we do not perceive anything with high relative velocity. However, the fourth-dimension can be manifested in observable three dimensions as the curvature path of a moving infinitesimal particle.
A pentatope, or 4-simplex, is a four dimensional geometric figure; the simplest regular figure in four dimensions. Our logo is a Schlegel diagram (a stereoscopic projection) of a pentatope, shown in a visual format:
Automation and robotic positioning is perceived in three dimensions in space; the fourth dimension is not readily perceptible. Hence, our approach to our business is to offer ideas and products to ‘perceive the next dimension’ for your product or process.
