Smart rotary encoder knob This versatile control device is used to operate a robotic arm but can be applied to numerous other applications as well. The knob features a rotary encoder with an integrated switch and an WS2812b LED ring, also known as neopixel, that consists of 8 pixels or LEDs. The top part of the knob is made from white PLA due to the presence of those LEDs. A Fusion360 file has been included for users who want to customize or modify this design.
