CLEVELAND—Video encoder developer ATEME today announced it is providing the HEVC encoder for the ATSC 3.0 test station being run by NAB and the Consumer Technology Association (CTA) in Cleveland. The ...

The most obvious engineering goal of an encoder is to get the best picture and audio quality per bit used. The other significant objective is to keep down the total cost of ownership. Factors that can ...

Encoders are widely used in the motion control and automation industry to monitor the position and speed of motors. This information can be used by the motion control electronics to detect if the ...

Last year, Automation World examined the differences between accuracy, resolution, and precision in the encoder world. And while understanding the differences among these terms is important to ...

Encoders are a vital component in many applications that require motion control and feedback information. Whether a system’s requirement is speed, direction, or distance, an encoder produces control ...

Why are there so many different angle encoders on the market? Why do they use different scanning and measuring methods? And which one should a designer choose? To answer those questions, engineers at ...

Because encoders limit the number of controls required to increase functionality, they reduce the real estate needed in a given piece of equipment and, in turn, can reduce the point of focus or ...
