Position Sensor: An Overview
A position sensor is a vital component used to detect and measure the position, displacement, or movement of an object relative to a reference point. These sensors play a crucial role in modern industrial, automotive, consumer electronics, and aerospace applications by enabling precise monitoring and control of mechanical systems. By converting physical position into electrical signals, position sensors support automation, safety, and efficiency across a wide range of technologies.
Position sensors are available in various types, each designed to suit specific operating conditions and accuracy requirements. Common categories include linear position sensors, rotary position sensors, potentiometric sensors, optical sensors, magnetic sensors, and capacitive sensors. Linear sensors measure straight-line motion, while rotary sensors determine angular position or rotation. The selection of a suitable position sensor depends on factors such as measurement range, resolution, environmental conditions, and durability requirements.
