    Josh Kopel commented on PID motor control with an Arduino

    @simon

    The short answer is that this uses a quadrature encoded for sensing the wheel position. The pot is just for input to indicate a relative amount to turn.

    I have a pretty complete write up on my blog here abigmagnet.blogspot.com/search/label/PID

    Things have progressed in the 2 years since I did this, and there are probably better Arduino PID libraries now. You should look into those instead of the code I hacked together.
