Encoders

Let's build and explore how encoders work. We made three types of encoders. The incremental encoder measures the number of rotations a device completes. The quadrature encoder tracks rotations and direction. The absolute encoder can tell what degree the device is at.

You might need to **paint** your encoder if the IR signal is transmitted through your print.
