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 ...

This is an incremental rotary encoder that uses contactless magnetic sensing to detect rotational speed and direction. The two Hall Effect sensors measure the 66-pole ring magnet and output two ...

Baumer will be demonstrating pioneering sensor solutions that under the motto "faster, more efficient, more sustainable" ...

Now available from Variohm EuroSensor, Contelec’s recently announced Vert-X 37MT Hall-effect encoder combines a 16-bit single-turn angle resolution with 16-bit multi-turn count (65536 turns) for ...

A while back we featured a magnetic rotary encoder that [LongHairedHacker] designed. The heart of the system is an AS5043 magnetic rotary sensor which runs from $6.5-$11 and has a 10 bits precision.

The PST-360 rotary, through-hole position sensor combines a through-shaft design with 360º absolute position feedback in an extremely thin package. It incorporates a proprietary ring magnet with a ...

TT Electronics has launched FlexSense a technology designed to optimize optical encoder applications. The FlexSense series consists of the FS210 Transmissive Incremental Encoder and the FS310 ...

Rotary encoders convert rotary movement or angular position into analogue or digital signals for use in measurement or control systems. They can be classified in a number of ways, primarily by the ...

A quadrature encoder uses two output channels offset in phase to detect both direction and position with greater precision.

Researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), in collaboration with UC Berkeley, have developed a new type ...

Designed by Nova Radio Labs in the US, the Novaduino Environmental Sensor Kit is an Arduino-programmable air quality and ...
