Title: optical mouse hack Post by: junaid_766 on October 08, 2008, 11:27:32 11:27 i want to use optical mouse sensor for positioning my robot by geting the data from its registers for measuring the position in X-Y coordinates
can anyone help me any related site or forum? Title: Re: optical mouse hack Post by: fernandodiaz on October 08, 2008, 11:56:10 23:56 you need buy ps/2 optical laser mouse is best easy so

Optical mouse can retrieve information of displacement without problem when user do not demand for precision movement. However, One will also notice that optical mouse report different displacement reading for different surface texture, color and reflectivity. In fact, variation of height also cause changes in the displacement reading. Eventually, one will find that, using mouse for positioning purposes, will only be suitable in a flat, clean and fix color test field, but not in practical field.

usalay they have pam101 or h2000 chip and both of them work much like the same. they have an ps2 output and another x-y quadrature encoder pulse which i think is the easiest way to connect to your micro and calculate the positions. |
