Re: Sensors
The one I haven't seen mentioned is the Absolute Encoder.
To my understanding they are similar to potentiometers in that they don't judge angle from the starting position, but unlike potentiometers, they don't have physical limits.
They are generally expensive, but we use at least one every year.
