ADNS-3050 Optical Sensor Version / RC Servo #22

This library is simply spetacular! If we could make it work with continuous rotation RC servos, without any additional hardware, it would be a dream coming true...

Also, what about using this library/sensor for an optical closed loop version?

This would provide a path to make a low cost robot platform that everyone of us could use, and open the door for this:

I already made it for continuous rotation servo: https://www.hackster.io/misan/control-the-position-of-a-continuous-rotation-servo-via-wifi-270e64

The sensor you mention seems like a mouse so it might provide two axis linear displacement motion ... not sure how reliable that could be but it might be worth trying
