Re: Rotation sensors?

With some intense calculations made in the code, you could use the accelerometer, but this only gives you position of your robot and will not account for slippage. I don't think there will be any sensor that would work best for that. I would lean towards calculations in code but that might be because I'm a little biased.

Didn't even think about potentiometers. I like that. And code calculations
