Hello Everyone

I personally have never used encoders on my equipment, because I have always thought of them as a tool to identify the position of the motor's rotor or to identify the current position of a peripheral piece of equipment. This video has enlightened me to other uses of an encoder such as stall detection and prevention. Hope you find it a little educational.
