Patent Images
1. A method comprising:
- receiving, by a device, two channels associated with an output of an encoder;
executing, by the device, a first algorithm to detect a direction of movement of an entity the encoder is applied to based on the two channels;
executing, by the device, a second algorithm to generate two channels with a reduced resolution relative to the two channels associated with the output of the encoder, the two channels with the reduced resolution comprising the detected direction of movement; and
outputting, by the device, the two channels with the reduced resolution.
