To find out how far a robot has to travel, you can use an encoder disc. This has a certain number of grids (here 12 and 20) with the help of which you can determine the rotation. The more grids the more precisely you can control. With 20 grids, we have a distance of 10.4 mm per grid that the robot travels.

The print of the disc is required.

Furthermore, you need a sensor that recognizes the grid and sends a pulse to the controller. [https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B07TZ78N8W/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1](https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B07TZ78N8W/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1)
