From the project

Revolutions per minute (RPM) meter for UAV, rotors, wheels and engines.

Compatible with multiple probe types, including Hall effect and optical probes. See the TFPROBE01 and TFRPM01 documentation for details.

Third-party hall probe sensors could also be used; here is an example of a suitable generic hall probe with a mounting flange.

Supported by PX4 firmware. Setup instructions are available in the PX4 documentation.
