Today i have done continuous for ru

Helpfull software for designing encoders.

I design my wheel encoders in coreldraw and it takes time to do the design. But recently found a better solution for that. A small software called wheel encoder generator which helps you to design different types of encoders in few seconds. I hope this will be a helpful tip for those who whats to make there own optical wheel encoders. Link for the software https://code.google.com/p/wheel-encoder-generator/
