hello
how r u all
i'v tried this project http://playground.arduino.cc/componentLib/Ps2mouse in order to use the mouse as a motor feed back, but it didn't work
when i open the serial monitor it just give me zeros and nothing change with a mouse movement
i tried two different mice
what is the problim
My first guess would be that you have the pins wired incorrectly.
in order to use the mouse as a motor feed back,
What does this mean? The motor MIGHT provide some signal that it is doing something, but you can't use that to make a mouse move. A mouse is an input device, not an output device.
i reviewed the wiring several times
i want to use the small encoders in the mouse as a feed back , a mechanical mouse
or i may make the mechanism move the mouse it self
or i may make the mechanism move the mouse it self
How? The mouse has nothing that makes it move by itself.
i want to use the small encoders in the mouse as a feed back
The encoders are activated when the mouse is moved. How is some motor turning somewhere going to activate the encoders?

Are you using a ps/2 mouse?

yes
In that case, the most likely reason for it to not work is that you haven't reproduced that solution accurately. It's time to look at the signals between the mouse and the Arduino and see whether the mouse is outputting the signals you expect and whether the Arduino is receiving them.

how?

With a voltmeter.
