WayinTop: Your Top Way to Inspiration. Why are rotary encoders so cool? Unlike a variable resistor/potentiometer they have infinite travel in any direction and because they produce a digital "Gray code" you can scale their readings to whatever range you like. The dual direction makes them useful for increasing or decreasing a value within a variable or navigating menus. Finally, many of these rotary encoders come with a centre push button, which can be used to select menu items, reset a counter or do anything you can think of that might suit a momentary push button.
