Description
Wheel Encoder Generator
Wheel Encoder Generator is a handy tool that makes it super easy and quick to create encoder discs for your robotics projects or other cool uses. You can even print these discs at the right scale using your printer!
Create Your Own Encoders
This software lets you design and make rotary encoders in no time. Whether you're working on a robotics project or diving into mechatronics, Wheel Encoder Generator has got your back.
How It Works
The magic happens when you generate an encoder disc with special patterns on it. These patterns are read by sensors, which connect to a computer or microcontroller. They help transform the movement or position of the disc into a digital signal that your robot can understand.
Understanding Rotary Encoders
When you put together the disc and sensors, what you get is called a rotary encoder (or shaft encoder). There are two main types of encoders: incremental (relative) and absolute. Each type serves its purpose depending on what you're building.
Cross-Platform Compatibility
The best part? Wheel Encoder Generator works on all major operating systems! Whether you're using Mac OS X, Windows, or Linux, this tool has you covered.
