Revision history [back]

controlling a motor using a PID-controller has nothing to do with encoders.

However, if you want to control the speed of a motor with whatever-controller, you need to know how fast it actually is. What do you have instead of encoders? resolvers? Anyways, you have to write your own driver for this.

You could obviously adapt the respective libraries to your use-case. Or write your own driver. What ever suits you best.
