Linear Encoders and Arduino
A couple of weeks ago, I started working on a project that requires me to find the position of single moving object in real time and record it. For this project, I am using a linear encoder to get this data. For those of you that do not know, a linear encoder is a sensor that detects it’s position on a scale (think of something like a ruler). The linear encoder I am using is an Accuremote 38-inch scale (which can be found on the companies site here)....
