Hello fellow Mindstormers,

After a few hours lent over my oscilloscope, here is what I learned about
Lego rotation sensor : http://www.philohome.com/sensors/legorot.htm

You will find there theory of operation, schematics and a fix to the random
count problem at low rotating speed.

Enjoy !

Have you tested it at high rotating speeds to see if there is any adverse
effects caused by the additional parallel capacitance? (just curious)

Some great work there.  I am currently in the same milieu with a rotation
sensor that is initializing to -1 (when it should be 0) and returning
readings all over the map (well, +-1,2,3 units) despite running motor at
full steam (or slower).

(...) No, I didn't explicitely tested at full speed, but since capacitor is on power supply filtering and not on signal, there is no reason that this has any adverse effect on max rotation speed. Philo (23 years ago, 23-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics)
