Hi, I'm Bill. I'm a software developer with a passion for making and electronics. I do a lot of things and here is where I document my learning in order to be able to inspire other people to make ...

Same Sky has created an absolute encoder family for motor shafts from 9 to 15.875mm (5/8inch). Called AMT25 and said to be accurate to ±0.2°, the family relies on the same in-house capacitive ASIC for ...

Posital has enhanced its IXARC family of incremental magnetic rotary encoders, increasing the maximum resolution to 32,768 pulses per revolution (PPR). This upgrade also includes ...

In this paper, a capacitive rotary encoder for contactless angle measurement is presented. The encoder includes a rotor and a stator. The rotor is composed by a coupling electrode and a sensitive ...

A new kind of the rotary encoder based on the magneto-optical (MO) storage is proposed. Using the MO methods, a small high-precision high-response rotary encoder can be realized. High precision is ...

Precision of rotational and linear measurement underpins motion control systems, and optical encoders are a mainstay in delivering this. Converting mechanical motion into digital signals enables ...

GMI Rotary Encoders offer high accuracy, repeatability and resolution, featuring IP67-rated aluminum or steel housings for harsh environments, along with no hysteresis and real-time position update ...

An Arduino Nano or a Micro might be the best options If a small board sounds like the most appropriate choice.

Measuring wheels combined with IXARC rotary encoders measure linear motion in conveyor belts and rolled products.
