The project describes the construction of a contact-less tachometer by using a 8051 microcontroller and a proximity sensor to be used in counting the revolutions per minute of a rotating shaft. The ...

Here we designed a simple non contact tachometer using microcontroller which can measure speed with an accuracy of 1 rev/sec. Here we design a simple non-contact tachometer using microcontroller, ...

If you’re into anything even vaguely mechanical on the broad hacking spectrum, you’ve come into contact with things that spin. Sometimes, it’s important to know precisely how fast they are spinning!
