When the core is centrally located, the voltage induced in each secondary is equal
If the core moves to one side or other, the larger voltage will be induced in the one
than in other side due to changes in flux linkage associated with the core.

3. Magnetic flow sensor
• electrically conductive liquid
• magnetic field generated by oscillating voltage
applied in the coils
• voltage induced in electrodes depends upon flow
of liquid
Optical Encoders
• Measure displacement and velocity.
• Emitter receiver pair reads coded disk [rotational] or bar [linear].
• Can be classified into two categories depending on the nature
and method of interpretation of the output:
i) Incremental Encoders
ii) Absolute Encoders
• An absolute encoder can tell you where the joint is at any time,
regardless of the position of the joint at power on.
