Position probes measure the position of a target surface, usually with a high degree of accuracy.

Linear position sensors, all types, is a general search form for all linear position / displacement detection product areas

Coordinating measuring machine (CMM) probes are transducers that convert physical measurements into electrical signals, using various measuring systems within the probe structure

Magnetostrictive position sensors are non-contact linear position sensors that use the momentary interaction of two magnetic fields to produce a strain pulse that moves along a waveguide.

Fiber optic linear position sensors use fiber optic technology to sense position and displacement

Hall effect position sensors are noncontact devices that function via an electrical potential (for example, a voltage) that is developed across an axis perpendicular to an applied current flow and the presence of a magnetic field

Optical triangulation position sensors use reflected waves to pinpoint position and displacement
