AngleSensor

Measures the absolute rotational angle of a connected spline. This component models an ideal sensor that outputs the absolute angle of a spline. It directly reflects the phi variable of an associated spline object, which is assumed to be defined in the extended PartialAbsoluteSensor or through a connection. The relationship defining the sensor's output is:

$$ph{i}_{sensor}=spline.phi$$

There are no dynamics, delays, or inaccuracies modeled in this sensor; it provides a perfect, instantaneous reading of the spline's angle.

This component extends from PartialAbsoluteSensor

Usage

RotationalComponents.AngleSensor()

Connectors

• spline - This connector represents a rotational spline with angle and torque as the potential and flow variables, respectively. (Spline)

• phi - This connector represents a real signal as an output from a component (RealOutput)

Behavior

$$\begin{array}{rl}0& =\mathtt{spline}\mathtt{.}\mathtt{tau}\left(t\right)\\ \mathtt{phi}\left(t\right)& =\mathtt{spline}\mathtt{.}\mathtt{phi}\left(t\right)\end{array}$$

This component models an ideal sensor that outputs the absolute angle of a spline.
