I have to measure the speed of a wheel similiar to a bicycle wheel. I figure the best way (or at least one way) to do it is to use a hall effect transistor switching into a counter. Does anyone have any suggestions for a part/manufacturer to use for (...) (27 years ago, 11-Aug-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

I'd like to hear what you come up with as well. Presently I just use the magnet/coil sensor pairs that you can buy in any bike store. You just hook the shield to ground, and the other wire to, say, an input-capture pin of a 68HC11, with a 3.3 K pull (...) (27 years ago, 11-Aug-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Yeah, the 12V goes into the motor power pin of the L293's. Thus you will get a higher than 9.6 motor voltage. ---...--- ericson mar Master of Engineering Candidate Project: Mobile Robotics mar@cooper.edu (212)353-4356 Department of Mechanical (...)

Hello all, Fred Martin may have said something to this list about 12v being ok as a battery voltage.If so does the motor drive voltage go up accordingly? Thank you for your help, Joe Martin Email:joema@mpx.com.au (27 years ago, 9-Aug-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Because the servos are closed systems they don't have a hard requirement that their motors run at the same speed, however it would affect the slew rate which is spec'd so they have to be reasonably close.

David, I believe you will want to purchase ones that have a dark resistance more than say 20K. The sensor is part of a divider circuit that includes a 47K resistor. The sensed signal equals (sensor resistance)/(sensor +47K) multipled by 255. If your (...) (27 years ago, 8-Aug-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
