Sensor-Arduino Rotary Encoder

• An electronic device that can track position and movement when rotating is called a rotary encoder.
• A rotary encoder works by using optical sensors, which, as they spin, can produce pulses.
• This tiny Rotary Encoder Module, which uses photoelectric sensors and an encoder wheel that was specially made to detect the precise orientation of the rotatable knob, is an excellent module for integrating with electronics.
• This makes interacting with microcontroller-based projects quite simple.
• To scroll through a menu or other interface, just turn the knob in either direction.
• The shaft also functions as a push button, allowing you to select the desired option.
