Potentiometers (variable
resistors) are probably the most common
and cheap position encoder; commonly used in RC
Servos. The resistor is connected between power and ground, and the wiper
then produces a voltage related to the position. Advantages: Cheap, fast,
small. Disadvantages: Low accuracy, short life, intermittant operation
(especially when grit, grime, or wear damages the resistive surface).
