  2. Incremental encoder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incremental_encoder

    Many incremental encoders have an additional output signal, typically designated index [2] or Z, [3] which indicates the encoder is located at a particular reference position. Also, some encoders provide a status output (typically designated alarm ) [ 4 ] that indicates internal fault conditions such as a bearing failure or sensor malfunction.

  3. Z-order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z-order

    z-index only works on elements that have a position value (e.g. position: relative;) and for many coders, this one of the first things to investigate when debugging why the z-index isn't working. [3] Like all other CSS properties, it can be set with JavaScript as well with the following syntax:

  4. Encoder (position) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encoder_(position)

    Absolute encoders give an absolute position value. Incremental encoders count movement rather than position. With detection of a datum position and the use of a counter, an absolute position may be derived. The position may be measured as either linear or angular position Linear encoder, converts linear position to an electronic signal

  5. Rotary encoder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_encoder

    A rotary encoder, also called a shaft encoder, is an electro-mechanical device that converts the angular position or motion of a shaft or axle to analog or digital output signals. [1] There are two main types of rotary encoder: absolute and incremental. The output of an absolute encoder indicates the current shaft position, making it an angle ...

  6. Z-order curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z-order_curve

    The Z-ordering can be used to efficiently build a quadtree (2D) or octree (3D) for a set of points. [4] [5] The basic idea is to sort the input set according to Z-order.Once sorted, the points can either be stored in a binary search tree and used directly, which is called a linear quadtree, [6] or they can be used to build a pointer based quadtree.

  7. Earth-centered, Earth-fixed coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth-centered,_Earth...

    The Earth-centered, Earth-fixed coordinate system (acronym ECEF), also known as the geocentric coordinate system, is a cartesian spatial reference system that represents locations in the vicinity of the Earth (including its surface, interior, atmosphere, and surrounding outer space) as X, Y, and Z measurements from its center of mass.

  8. Coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinate_system

    In geometry and kinematics, coordinate systems are used to describe the (linear) position of points and the angular position of axes, planes, and rigid bodies. [16] In the latter case, the orientation of a second (typically referred to as "local") coordinate system, fixed to the node, is defined based on the first (typically referred to as ...

  9. E–Z notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E–Z_notation

    E–Z configuration, or the E–Z convention, is the IUPAC preferred method of describing the absolute stereochemistry of double bonds in organic chemistry.It is an extension of cis–trans isomer notation (which only describes relative stereochemistry) that can be used to describe double bonds having two, three or four substituents.
