Abstract
In this paper, we have implemented servo motor that can be controlled to rotate in even 360 degree using normal DC motor and an optical encoder. This helps to reduce the cost required to buy a servo motor spatially for heavy duty tasks. It is important to mention that the prices of servo motors increase as the rotation range of the servo is wider. In addition, the prices increase as the torque of the servo motor is higher. Therefore, using a normal DC motor with gearbox and optical encoder, will reduce the cost significantly because we have provided a high torque using the gearbox and also provided a 360-degree controllable rotation range using the optical encoder. Arduino Uno has been chosen to provide compatible system that is easy to operate and economically. This idea can be used in any application that requires servo motor with high torque or with wide rotation angle to reduce the specified cost and save some money.
