The speed sensor, is a Banner DS18VN6LP photoeye.
The 8" pneumatic wheel is direct mounted to a CIM with Hex shaft and hub.
There is a piece of reflector tape on every other face of the hex shaft, so 3 pulses per revolution.
The TBH algorithm runs is in a 10ms timed tasked loop, with metronome timer.
The code is labview, more info from this link.

We are not using gear tooth mode on the sensor, but now we are averaging over 3 pulses, because of the change to the hex shaft.
I think it will be very hard to find one aspect of FIRST which doesn't inspire us. - Arefin Bari [more]
