POSITAL has introduced a new series of IXARC rotary encoders designed for applications where high shaft loadings may be ...

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 ...

The sensor device is the part of the transducer that interacts with and changes in response to the physical world, detecting changes in the measured condition - pressure, temperature, light intensity, ...

We review basic principles of modern optical magnetometers, discuss fundamental limitations on their performance, and describe recently explored applications for dynamical measurements of ...

Unfortunately the available memory on Microcontrollers is quite restricted and we do not get very far by storing a (uncompressed) WAV file e.g. in program/flesh memory, so I started to look into ...

Analog and digital optoelectronic sensors combine an LED and an optoelectronic integrated circuit in a compact package to enable optical encoders to provide absolute or incremental position ...

Is it really possible to build a rotary encoder out of a flattened tin can and a couple of photodetectors? Sure it’s possible, but what kind of resolution are you going to get from such a ...
