Grove - Servo is a DC motor with gearing and feedback system. It is used in the driving mechanism of robots. The module is a bonus product for Grove lovers. The three-wire servo is regulated into a Grove standard connector. You can plug and play it as a typical Grove module now, without jumper wires clutter.
The Servo motor is a rotary actuator that allows for precise control of angular position which makes them suitable for use in closed-loop systems where precise position control is needed and is commonly used in electronics. Servo motors are part of a closed-loop system and they are a self-contained electrical device that rotates parts of a machine with high efficiency with great precision. to learn more about RC servos, read here.
