New surface-mount optical sensors increase vertical headroom, enabling more flexible encoder and position-sensing designs across industrial and consumer electronics.

Most CES tech is still on the horizon, but these products are already real, priced and (mostly) ready to ship.

An unexpected revisit to my earlier post on mouse encoder hacking sparked a timely opportunity to reexamine quadrature encoders, this time with a clearer lens and a more targeted focus on their signal ...

Rotary encoders are electromechanical transducers that convert angular displacement into corresponding electrical signals interpretable by digital systems. This article specifically focuses on panel ...

Van Nuys, CA – The new YPR-45-45-100 Series of Pitch, Roll, and Yaw Three-axis Stages are the integration of two +/- 45 degrees Goniometers for lower (pitch) and middle (roll) axes, and a large upper, ...

Precision of rotational and linear measurement underpins motion control systems, and optical encoders are a mainstay in delivering this. Converting mechanical motion into digital signals enables ...

POSITAL's measuring wheels and accessories leverage the company’s IXARC encoders to measure linear motion in conveyor systems, the manufacture of rolled or roll-to-roll products, and similar ...

The monitoring of slopes’ dynamics is essential to ensure the safety of infrastructures exposed to landslide risk and to develop mitigation strategies. However, it is not always possible to perform ...

Analog and digital optoelectronic sensors combine an LED and an optoelectronic integrated circuit in a compact package to enable optical encoders to provide absolute or incremental position detection ...

FLUX uses Giant Magneto Impedance (GMI) technology for encoders, setting new standards for precision and adaptability in a wide range of applications. GMI technology is a principle that has been ...
