Re: Best Sensor for Unlimited Rotation Swerve
I haven't built a swerve but your requirements for the sensor scream absolute rotary encoder to me. So for instance: <http://www.cui.com/catalog/components/encoders/absolute>
Buy at Digikey for $48.65 each

Edit: Also if the encoder is 1:1 with respect to rotation you could attach a standard rotary encoder and use the index to give you a home position. Turn each wheel left until you see the index then figure out that angle relative to forward for each wheel and reset the current angel of the wheel to that known value.
