German Albright sensor Albright model Albright price

Albright sensors are used to detect angles. There is a hole in its body that can accommodate a LEGO axle. When connected to RCX, the angle sensor counts once for every 1/16 revolution of the axle. When rotating in one direction, the count increases; when the direction of rotation changes, the count decreases. The count is related to the initial position of the angle sensor. When the angle sensor is initialized, its count value is set to 0. If necessary, you can reset it via programming.

Albright sensor features

High-precision single-axis tilt angle sensor using capacitive 3D-MEMS technology demonstrates excellent reliability, superior stability, and unprecedented high precision across the entire temperature range. The tilt angle sensor series is designed, manufactured, and tested according to the reliability and stability requirements of the automotive industry. The series of tilt angle sensors features significant load capacity and very good impact durability without requiring additional components. The tilt sensor is part of the analog acceleration sensor product line and is fully compatible with acceleration sensors. The tilt sensor allows adjustment of the output frequency and has built-in zero-position adjustment. A zero-position adjustment button can be customized upon request to achieve zeroing at a specific angle. This is very useful for applications measuring relative tilt angles; after use, it can return to the zero position. When used in such applications, simply fix the sensor to a specific plane and use the zero button to clear the reading before measurement. The data read by the sensor thereafter represents the relative tilt angle with respect to that plane.

Albright sensor application areas

Using an angle sensor to control your wheels can indirectly detect obstacles. The principle is very simple: if the motor is running but the gear is not turning, it indicates that your machine is blocked by an obstacle. This technology is very simple to use and highly effective; the only requirement is that the moving wheel must not slip on the floor (or slip too frequently), otherwise you will not be able to detect obstacles. If an idler gear connected to the motor is used, this problem can be avoided. This wheel is not driven by the motor but is driven by the movement of the device: during the rotation of the drive wheel, if the idler wheel stops, it indicates that you have hit an obstacle. In many cases, angle sensors are very useful: for controlling the position of arms, heads, and other movable parts. It is worth noting that when the operating speed is too slow or too fast, RCX will be affected in terms of precise detection and counting. In fact, the problem does not lie with RCX itself, but with its operating system. If the speed exceeds its specified range, RCX will lose some data. Steve Baker has proven through experiments that a speed range between 50 and 300 rpm is relatively suitable, within which there will be no data loss. However, in the range below 12rpm or above 1400rpm, some data loss will occur. In the ranges of 12rpm to 50rpm or 300rpm to 1400rpm, RCX may also occasionally experience data loss.
