Good Rotational Sensor

Does anyone know of a good rotational sensor?

We want to try implementing a swerve drive for next year, and we need a rotational sensor to have precise control over how much each of the wheel modules rotates.

We're planning to use BaneBots motors to drive the pivot, and at first I thought that we could use encoders on them, but I'm not sure how to mount encoders on a BaneBots motor. Is there a way to do that? And if not, what sensor would I use to measure the rotation of the wheels?

Thanks,
