Torque and/or Angle Sensors
Last update: 28 Jun. 2024What are Torque and/or Angle Sensors?
Torque and/or Angle Sensors are reliable components designed to detect drivers’ torque and/or steering wheel position for precise regulation in electronic power steering (EPS) systems and future steer-by-wire steering systems.
These sensors represent a pivotal advancement in automotive technology, providing real-time feedback on the driver’s input to optimize steering performance and enhance vehicle control. By accurately detecting torque and steering wheel position, they enable the EPS system to adjust steering assistance levels dynamically, improving responsiveness and stability under varying driving conditions.
With their robust design and advanced signal processing capabilities, these sensors ensure precise measurements even in the most demanding operational environments. Furthermore, they are engineered with future innovations in mind, ensuring compatibility with upcoming steer-by-wire steering systems.
