7.3.4 Optical encoders

An Optical Encoder interprets data in pulses of light which can then be used to determine such things as position, direction and velocity. The shaft rotates a disc with opaque segments that represent a particular pattern. These encoders can determine the movement of an object for "rotary" or "shaft" applications while determining exact position in "linear" functions. Optical encoders are used in various applications such as printers, CNC milling machines and robotics.
