austriamicrosystems introduces the AS5046, a new 12-bit resolution magnetic rotary encoder offering rotation, tilt and vertical distance detection of a magnet placed above the IC. The device can ...

You know, we hadn’t realized how tired we were of vertical laser harps until we saw [Jonathan Bumstead]’s entry into the 2019 Hackaday Prize. It’s all well and good to imitate the design of the ...

Naya Connect is a modular mechanical keyboard ecosystem with a swappable numpad, trackball, a 6DoF spatial mouse, and more.

This is the first of a two-part series. Part 2 can be found here. Encoders play an integral role in almost every mechanical system that involves motion monitoring or control. There are a variety of ...

While standard optical encoders have traditionally been used to meet the needs of high-precision sensing and control applications (such as steering-wheel position detection or industrial motion ...

Encoders are a vital component in many applications that require motion control and feedback information. Whether a system’s requirement is speed, direction, or distance, an encoder produces control ...

The sensing mechanism in an incremental optical rotary encoder consists primarily of a light source, code wheel, and optical detector. As the code wheel turns, a ring of alternating opaque and ...

The gmmk Pro is a 75% keyboard with a full cnc aluminum case with a gasket-mounted design, a rotary encoder knob, ...
