Measure distances with the optical shaft encoder. Measures with greater precision than IR or ultrasonic sensors. A Programming Kit is needed to change the program in the Vex Controller.
- Measure distances
- Position and motion sensing
- Increase navigation control
- More autonomous function
- Increases design flexibility
