Encoders are a vital component in many applications that require motion control and feedback information. Whether a system’s requirement is speed, direction, or distance, an encoder produces control ...

As you may have noticed, I’ve been working with an STM32 ARM CPU using Mbed. There was a time when Mbed was pretty simple, but a lot has changed since it has morphed into Mbed OS. Unfortunately, that ...

If you’ve ever spent time in a modern BMW, you’ve probably fussed about with the goofy iDrive controller. It’s a rotary knobbery slidery thing that just never really feels that good to use. [Garage ...

This library uses a PCF8575 to read the pulses of a rotary encoder. As a PCF8575 has 16 lines up to 5 decoders with a switch can be read over I2C. The PCF interrupt line can be used to detect changes ...

Abstract: This paper presents a precision capacitive rotary encoder that integrates a shared charge amplifier, and a multi-stage offset calibration scheme. Recently, capacitive encoders have gained ...

Abstract: This article introduces an inexpensive Wiegand-sensor-based rotary encoder that avoids rotating magnets and is suitable for electrical-drive applications. So far, Wiegand-sensor-based ...

If you ever tried to play the arcade version of Arkanoid on an emulator, you may have found the game impossibly hard. And by that I mean impossible. That's because the game was designed to be played ...
