It is amazing how many Arduino programmes for decoding rotary encoders start with something like: “I looked at all the available rotary encoder sketches and none of them met my needs, so I have ...

Off-the-shelf absolute encoders or sensors provide straight-binary or grayscale-binary values, but if you need a special coding, it takes time to create and adds to an encoder's cost. To address the ...

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 ...
