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 ...

FLUX, a high-precision encoder company, has released a new whitepaper that examines the benefits of FLUX inductive technology in enabling next-generation performance across robotics, medical, ...

Rotary encoders are electromechanical transducers that convert angular displacement into corresponding electrical signals interpretable by digital systems. This article specifically focuses on panel ...

Flux has released a new 300mm size option for its Ind-Max range of inductive angle encoders for harsh environments. These encoders use inductive technology to deliver non-contact, wear-free ...

This post is a quick look at the quite popular Rotary Angle Sensor module CJMCU-103. The CJMCU-103 rotary angle sensor/rotation sensor module is good for detecting an absolute rotation position. The ...

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 ...

POSITAL's measuring wheels and accessories leverage the company’s IXARC encoders to measure linear motion in conveyor systems, the manufacture of rolled or roll-to-roll products, and similar ...

Part 1 of this FAQ looked at the optical rotary encoder, a low-cost, high-resolution, easy-to-use sensor for indicating incremental shaft position (although it can be “upgraded” to indicate absolute ...
