Rays Weather Station

The wind vane is responsible for determining which direction the wind is coming from. Inside the wind vane rotating cap there is a radially oriented magnet attached to the center bolt which rotates with the wind vane. Its position is sensed by the RLS RMK2 hall effect angle sensor.  The se...

Using magnetic encoder to improve the accuracy of a SCARA

It is quite common in Austria, that students of a final class of a school for higher technical education, must prove their knowledge by working on a final project. Thus, two students of the LiTec in Linz, Austria have decided to design a robotic arm. Due to the cooperation with RLS and their generou...
