Hello, I'm trying to build an underwater tachometer for an AUV (autonomous = underwater vehicle) being built at the University of Victoria by a group = of engineering students. What we hope to do is the standard shaft = encoder scheme where one determines speed by counter the number of = strips that pass by a photoreflector for a given time period. As such, = we are looking for an IR photoreflector that is contained in a = waterproof casing (maximum depth we will be going is 30 feet). Can = anyone recommend such a photoreflector or an alternative way to match = the speed of two motors?
