What are the properties of hydraulics and pneumatics?

One similarity is that they both use fluids. Both gasses and liquids are fluids. the two are also compressible.


Which is more accurate hydraulics or pneumatic?

Hydraulics usually is more accurate because you can't compress a fluid in the way that you can air and so air cylinders are always going to be "spring" like in their operation. One way around this would be to use geared air motors and some sort of feedback if positioning is important.
