PCB files and 3D models for team 13748's odometry pods. The pods are currently only configured for the GoBuilda strafer chassis, specifically a modified version which moves the drive motors out of the ...

Zettlex, the Cambridge company which has developed a novel inductive sensing technology, has announced a range of high-speed, precision motor encoders based on the technology. The ME series encoders ...

The VCNL4020 is a handy two-in-one sensor, with a proximity sensor that works from 0 to 200mm (about 7.5 inches) and light sensor with range of 0.26 to 16,000 lux. We've all been there. That thing is ...

Abstract: This paper proposed mainly fusions between encoders and light intensity sensors and between encoders and accelerometer for distance increment with Kalman filter to estimate robot's position.

Adafruit has made an I2C interface for four rotary encoders. It comes in the form of a PCB with four footprints that accept one of the most common rotary encoder forms (Bournes PEC11 horizontal style) ...

Abstract: This article introduces an inexpensive Wiegand-sensor-based rotary encoder that avoids rotating magnets and is suitable for electrical-drive applications. So far, Wiegand-sensor-based ...

Most of the hacks we see around these parts have to do with taking existing components and cobbling them together in interesting new ways. It’s less often that we see existing components gutted and ...

Rotary encoders are critical to many applications, even at the hobbyist level. While considering his own rotary encoding needs for upcoming projects, it occurred to [Jan Mrázek] to try making his own ...

From robotics and medical devices to green energy and automation, RLS magnetic encoders deliver precise motion control across countless industries. Our rotary encoders achieve accuracies down to ±44 ...

BEDFORD, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Celera Motion, an award-winning business unit of Novanta Inc., announced today another innovative new device for precise angle measurement: a compact, ...
