Wheel watcher addon encoder system for gearboxes

Subject: Wheel watcher addon encoder system for gearboxes

The Wheel Watcher low cost incremental encoder system enables robot builders to quickly add closed loop control.
Both ChA/ChB raw quadrature outputs, and decoded Clock and Direction signals are available.
The clock signal produces 25µs pulses at each transition of ChA or ChB, providing a 4x increase in resolution – 128 clocks per servo rotation – while the direction signal indicates the decoded direction of rotation, making it very easy to add to any microcontroller.
When the WheelWatcher servo encoder is added to a GM style gearbox, it accurately senses direction, distance, velocity, and acceleration.
Installation is easy using the provided hardware and alignment tool.
Applications: Dead reckoning * Odometry * Closed-loop position, velocity, and acceleration control * Stall detection.
Features: Easy installation, Simple interface, 128 clocks per rotation.
Gearboxes and Wheels not included.
