A displacement measurement technology that integrates a sensor structure with the component being tested is proposed to address the challenges posed by limited sensor installation in small and compact ...

A new capacitive sensor that is suitable for measuring both linear and angular displacements of a shaft over a wide range is reported in this paper. The sensor consists of a cylindrical shaft with a ...

Two sensor plates – a target and a probe – form a parallel-plate capacitor, with the spacing of the plates measured using an electronic controller. Measurement ranges from 20 µm to 1250 µm are ...
