- | ===== Hardware description ===== | + | Potential uses for computer mice: |
+ | * Rotary optical encoders using mechanical mice roller wheel sensors | ||
+ | * eg robot motion (direction and distance) feedback | ||
+ | * eg wind speed indicator | ||
+ | * eg dynamometer | ||
+ | * eg speed measurement | ||
+ | * Use the whole mouse (either mechanical or optical) as a position tracking sensor that supplies motion X-Y info | ||
