ABSTRACT:
A detector for sensing speed/direction of movement of apparatus including a reticle with alternate transparent and opaque portions coupled to the apparatus and having a light source mounted on one side and two spaced apart light sensors on the other side, which sensors produce alternate output signals with movement of the reticle. The sensor output signals are differentially compared to produce a digital output signal with a constant duty cycle. A second pair of light sensors is utilized to produce quadrature digital signals.
