How to Watch Design Squad
Design Squad is available to stream on pbs.org and the free PBS App, available on iPhone, Apple TV, Android TV, Android smartphones, Amazon Fire TV, Amazon Fire Tablet, Roku, Samsung Smart TV, and Vizio.
Servos, or servo mechanisms, are motorized devices that automatically control motion, and in some cases, position.
Electrical signals from the receiver trigger the servo's arm to rotate so that something like a camera can pan or tilt.
