✦ Synopsis

Capacitance-type sensing systems have few moving parts, making them extremely reliable. They are also free of mechanical hysteresis, and the sensor structure is simple and solid. A study has been made to see how these advantages might be applied to the behaviour and environment of automotive components. The results have led to the design of a position sensor for use in motor vehicles. This paper describes the design procedure used in determining the sensor structure and the properties of the capacitance-forming dielectric materials.
