An optical encoder is a type of encoder that uses optical technologies to provide position, velocity or rotation angle feedback. Optical encoders use optical sensors combined with a disc with transparent and opaque regions to determine movement and position via an interrupter beam of light. They offer several advantages over traditional mechanical and electrical encoder technologies such as high resolution, resistance to dust, moisture and magnetic interference. The growing demand for automation across industries such as manufacturing, semiconductor, packaging and others is driving the need for high precision motion control systems using optical encoders.

The Global Optical Encoder Market is estimated to be valued at US$ 1.7 Billion in 2024 and is expected to exhibit a CAGR of 12% over the forecast period 2024 to 2031.
