Cam and follower mechanism: Converts rotary motion into linear motion by translating the motion of a cam into the linear motion of a follower. Rack and pinion system: Uses a rotating gear (pinion) to move a linear rack back and forth, converting the rotary motion into linear motion. Scotch yoke mechanism: Utilizes a circular motion to drive a sliding block in a straight line, converting rotary motion to linear motion. Lead screw mechanism: A rotating screw that moves a nut along its threads, translating rotational motion into linear motion.

converts rotary motion to straight motion.
Linear motion can be converted to rotary motion using mechanisms like gears, pulleys, or cams. For example, a rotating gear can engage with another gear to convert linear motion into rotary motion. This conversion allows for transferring power from one direction to another efficiently.
The crankshaft and connecting rod (or piston rod).
crankshaft. The crankshaft is connected to the piston through a connecting rod, and as the piston moves up and down, the crankshaft converts this linear motion into rotary motion, which drives the vehicle's wheels through the transmission system.
The engine's crankshaft converts the up-and-down motion of the pistons into rotary motion. This rotary motion is then transmitted to the transmission and wheels to propel the vehicle forward.
Solenoid --- A solenoid produces linear motion. It's an electric motor that produces rotary motion.
A rack and pinion, cam, crank, and screw can do that.
Encoders are sensors that generate digital signals in response to movement. Both shaft encoders, which respond to rotation, and linear encoders, which respond to motion in a line.
because you don't want to around in circles.
A crankshaft is a device commonly used to convert linear motion into circular motion. As the crankshaft rotates, it causes pistons in an engine to move up and down in a linear fashion. Another device that achieves this conversion is a camshaft, which uses lobes to push against other components to create circular motion from a linear input.
