The global surge in high-definition video consumption, real-time remote collaboration, and IoT-integrated surveillance has placed unprecedented pressure on network infrastructures. At the heart of ...

Direct drives place rigorous demands on position-signal quality. Optimum measuring signals increase the quality of the machined workpiece surface, reduce vibration in the machine frame, stop excessive ...

Encoders are widely used in the motion control and automation industry to monitor the position and speed of motors. This information can be used by the motion control electronics to detect if the ...

Position encoders are sensors that, when used in industrial settings, produce critical motor information such as speed and position. The encoder delivers data for display or data that may serve as ...

An unexpected revisit to my earlier post on mouse encoder hacking sparked a timely opportunity to reexamine quadrature encoders, this time with a clearer lens and a more targeted focus on their signal ...

The FOT variants of the KCI 1300 inductive encoders from Heidenhain can also serve as a bearing cover. A growing trend in encoder technology is the integration of additional sensors to add diagnostic ...

When AMD bought Xilinx, it acquired a slew of new technologies and entrance into markets developed by the latter company. One of those unique technology niches includes high-performance video encoders ...

Crane installations are the elephants in the animal kingdom of machinery—not only for being real heavyweights themselves, but also for performing hardest work day in and day out, often under harsh ...

HandBrake, the free and open-source video transcoder, has dropped its first major release of 2026 – with new professional encoders, MOV output container ...
