Embedded System Glossary – Q

Embedded System Terminology - Q

Quadrature encoder - A type of rotary encoder. A mechanical device, the quadrature encoder produces two outputs 90 degrees out of phase. By counting transitions of these outputs, a computer can decode the shaft's position and its direction of motion.
Quantum Programming - A programming paradigm that extends traditional object-oriented programming with two additional fundamental concepts: hierarchical state machines and computing based on active objects. Any programming involving a quantum computer. Quantum computers are devices that compute using superpositions of quantum states.
