The leading and longest established online Process Engineering publication serving the Process Manufacturing Industries ...

Last year, Automation World examined the differences between accuracy, resolution, and precision in the encoder world. And while understanding the differences among these terms is important to ...

Encoders are widely used in the motion control and automation industry to monitor the position and speed of motors. This information can be used by the motion control electronics to detect if the ...

It’s easy to treat optical encoders as “black boxes” that need minimal consideration before they are installed to translate rotary motion into position or velocity feedback signals for a motion ...

Engineers using an incremental encoder for the first time often have a misunderstanding about what types of signals are provided by an encoder and how to interface an encoder to their application.

Do your users like to tinker with scripts? Keep yours out of harm's way by using Microsoft's Script Encoder. Greg Shultz shows you how to use the Encoder for basic script protection. If you’ve been ...

I want to write about something a little different this time. I removed the mechanical scroll wheel rotary encoder from a discarded optical mouse and used it in a little project. I really liked the ...

This review will showcase Osprey Video’s TALON 4K60 encoder (see Figure 1 above) and explore its capabilities for ingesting live streams over RTMP and SRT. Readers will learn how to get up and running ...
