Encoders for 1/2" Output Shaft

[AdamHeard]

Embedding a quadrature output magnetic gear tooth sensor like 2363 (and 3847) did with a versaplanet might be an option.

Or give up some shaft length and do it entirely external on the shaft close to the output bearing.

You might be able to modify the GEM in a similar manner, or attach a gear to the output shaft and use a similar mod.

Take a few minutes and read that paper, then download the data sheet. This sensor packs allot in a small package and can solve the tough quadrature encoder apps. We have the sensors and will be implementing them on our swerve drive. 8.00$ plus shipping, some caps and resistors and cable.

Wow this is a crazy awesome solution! Thanks Adam!
