Linear Potentiometer
Are we allowed to use either a linear potentiometer or a linear trasducer for our robot?

The simplistic answer: Yes. Please read chapter 8 of the rules and pay particular attention to the "2007 Parts Use Flowchart" contained therein.

Mike

Re: Linear Potentiometer
As long as it:

a) costs less than $400
b) is availible for any FIRST team to purchase (i.e. discontinued)
c) clearly isn't outlawed in the rules

then yes.
