Hello everyone, i have a new porject that requires my robot to be able to see how far it has traveled and so on...
I dont really like encoders, as i need a bit a accuracy, but i will take that path if needed.
I was wondering what other method you guys suggest? Like i've used optical mice before, and those can be odometers (if i remember correctly), but im looking for the most accurate method/price :O
Edit: I've also seen those motors u can buy with encoders integrated in the shaft or something.... are those any good??
Edit: also to be more specifac... lets just say my project is a robot maze, and the competition is on short-nap carpet.
Any suggestions would be cool <3 thanks
