| One of the advantages of using a shaft encoder is: For you to get the same "resolution" as a shaft encoder with a potentiometer, you must have a very precise pot. Some optical encoders can have 500 "ticks". But... a normal encoder does not tell (...) (28 years ago, 2-Apr-97, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)
