Rotary Motion Sensor

Each sensor requires a sensor cable to connect to LabMate+ or Tablet+. Sensor cable sold separately.

This Rotary Motion Sensor measures angular position in very high resolution and counts the sensor pulley turns. It can also be used to measure linear motion with a resolution of 0.1 mm. This is done by rolling the pulley along a plane, or by hanging a string over the pulley.

The Rotary Motion Sensor comes with a 3-step pulley and mounting rod. An optional accessory is also available: a pendulum that consists of a long light aluminum rod and two brass masses which can be attached at any point on the thin rod.
