One of new bot’s features will be magnetic position encoders for the wheels. In the past, [Erich] has used the encoder disks that Pololu sells without issue. At 69¢ each, they don’t exactly ...
[GreatScott!] knows this, and rather than put up with the bump and grind of a cheap rotary encoder, he decided to find an alternative. He ended up exploring hard drive motors as encoders ...

Rotary encoders convert a shaft's angular position into an analog or digital code. They are characterized as either incremental or absolute devices: incremental encoders are capable of tracking motion ...
An incremental rotary encoder converts angular motion or the position of a shaft to either analog or digital code. Incremental encoders are often used in feedback systems. These encoders translate ...
There are seven types of electromagnetic (EM) waves, which make up the electromagnetic spectrum. Electromagnetic waves are transverse waves, and travel at the speed of light. Different types of ...
Electromagnetic waves travel at 300,000,000 metres per second (m/s) through a vacuum. Often a phrase is used to help remember the order of the groups of the electromagnetic spectrum such as Roman ...
It was Scottish physicist James Clerk Maxwell who proposed that these charges were exerting influence through the form of radiation, so-called electromagnetic waves, which he proved were ...
During US Army Pacific's recent war games in Hawaii, those lessons were put to the test as soldiers focused on how to be "small and undetectable" in the electromagnetic spectrum, an airborne ...
