You could always cannibalize an old computer mouse for the LED and sensor,
note the wheel used in most mouse implementations gives something like 64
slots per rotation.

Anyone interested in building a simple optical sensor that can sense
linear motion or rotation?
See  www.umbra.demon.co.uk/legopages.html .

This looks pretty neat, Malcolm.  The links to your images on that page
were broken, though (try accessing it from a friend's computer to see).

What is your source for the opto-switch?

P.S. Could you please configure your email to client to send only plain

and not HTML?
