Hi,
My homebrew quad hall effect encoder works, I'm learning from it.
I get @ 1/4" resolution so there's plenty of slop. I can
have the robot pace back and forth on a straight track for 6 passes
or so then I start to veer off track. So I guess it's time to try an
optical encoder setup. I've got the Reflective sensors that
Fred recommended. What are you using for an encoder disk? I've got a
gear
that I exposed and that's what has the 4 magnets mounted on it. It's
got a 3/4" diameter, my drive wheels are at 2 1/2" diameter.
Do you print the disk out on a Laser Printer and then glue them
on cardboard and then glue that to the gears? How many more
ticks per revolution can I get? I get 8 ticks right now per 1
revolution of the drive gear.

| Jerry, go to: EE 401 - Electrical Engineering Design Course - 1999/2000 then to shaft encoders they have 16, 32, or 64 sections you can print out. bye, Terry G. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jerry Normandin" <jerrynormandin@ne.m...iaone.net> (...)
