Hi,
I was wondering if there is sensor to measure Angle/Angular rate at a distance of more than a few mm? I have been investigating Hall Effect and Inductive sensors but they all seem to be in the low mm maximum distance (air gap) range. I am not talking huge distances here but would like to be able to measure the angular rate from a distance of a few inches (maybe up to 12 inches) away. Is this possible? If so, could someone please point me to either a Hall Effect/Inductive Sensor which may be able to operate from that sort of distance or some other form of sensor which may meet this requirement?
Many Thanks.
