VVT systems use all sorts of sensors,
but the most important are the
camshaft and crankshaft position
sensors (which are often hall effect
sensors). The ECU uses these sensors
to monitor the relationship between
the piston’s location and the valves'
positions. The crankshaft is connected
to the rod and piston, and the
camshaft's lobes trigger valve lift
events. Thus, with the information
from the crankshaft and camshaft
position sensors, the ECU can learn
how fast the engine is rotating and the
relative positions of the piston and the
intake and exhaust valves. There are
numerous different methodologies
used to vary valve timing. Each
manufacturer has its own name for its
own VVT system. Toyota uses VVT-i®,
Honda uses VTEC®, Mitsubishi uses
MIVEC® etc.
