Hi i was wondering what the encoder resolution is on the Magni? It says it uses hall effect sensors but no mention of resolution.

Thank you!

The encoder resolution on the wheels works out to be 258 encoder counts per revolution or 1.4 degrees per tick. The Magni wheels have a circumference of just under 0.64 meters so a single tick corresponds to a linear distance of 2.5mm
