Re: ENcoder speed from -1 to +1

The most basic data returned from a rotary quadrature encoder is the total amount it has turned since the count was reset to zero. The FPGA also computes a rate based on the time between "ticks" of the encoder. The rate is presented in counts per second (scaled by an optional "distance per count" that you can set when you configure the encoder).

What do you plan to do with the encoder information you gather while the robot is being pushed?
