The difference between a full step or half step Rotary Encoder type is how the data signals of the two pins are generated. It depends on the mechanical construction of the notches and contacts inside ...

“I looked at all the available rotary encoder sketches and none of them met my needs, so I have written my own, and here it is”. Well, I looked at all the available rotary encoder sketches and none of ...

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 ...

Welcome to the exciting world of rotary encoders! In this project, we’ll embark on a journey to interface a rotary encoder with the Altera MAX 2 CPLD, lighting up a dazzling sequence of 4 LEDs based ...

You can use an old rotary telephone dialer in conjunction with your microcontroller to implement all sorts of things; for example, you could use it to enter a series of numbers to unlock a safe. You ...

Rotary encoders are great devices. Monitoring just a few pins you can easily and quickly read in rotation and direction of a user input (as well as many other applications). But as with anything, ...

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 paper focuses on path tracing of a holonomic three wheel Omni drive system. Any path (curved, linear) is first sampled, where the coordinates of the path are stored in the local memory, ...

We’ve featured a lot of interesting DIY timepieces in the past (most recently this Arduino Sesame Street creation) and the community keeps on creating new ones. Andy Evans, who goes by the username ...
