Angular Velocity Converter
Convert angular velocity between rad/s, deg/s, RPM and RPS.
Rotational speed is quoted as RPM on motors and machinery, in radians per second in physics and control systems, and in degrees per second in animation and robotics. Converting between them is constant work in mechanical and control engineering — and the factor involves 2π, which makes mental math error-prone.
This converter moves any angular velocity between radians per second, degrees per second, RPM and revolutions per second instantly, so a motor's RPM rating and your control loop's rad/s all line up.
