Transducers (such as optical or magnetic encoders) sense position or orientation for use as a reference or active feedback to control position: A rotary encoder converts rotary position to an analog (e.g., analog quadrature) or digital (e.g., digital quadrature, 32-bit parallel, or USB) electronic signal.
