Rotary Encoder How to - Basics, Demo and Application

In this video I took a rotary encoder from a computer mouse (can be used with any rotary encoder) and wired it up to control motor direction for a tape mechanism project using a transistor based H-bridge circuit as a sample application. My real use for it is something else. All schematics are shown and theory discussed if you stick with this long video till the end. Hope you enjoy and thanks for watching.
