This project implements a joystick controlled robot using an Arduino Mega 2560. The robot has two DC motors with encoders, and a joystick to control its speed and direction. The speed of the motors is ...

In this post we will see how we can achieve very precise position control of simple DC motor. We have use Arduino and PID calculation to achieve precise position control of simple DC motor. Such small ...

This project presents an Arduino based speed monitoring system where the RPM (revolutions per minute) of a DC motor is continuously displayed on a smartphone using Bluetooth communication. The Arduino ...

We always think it is interesting that a regular DC motor and a generator are about the same thing. Sure, each is optimized for its purpose, but inefficiencies aside, you can use electricity to rotate ...

What is a rotary encoder? A rotary encoder (RT) is a device that you can rotate infinitely. On most rotary encoders, when you rotate them you will feel a bump (known as steps), and most RTs have about ...
