Rotary Membrane Potentiometer

Description

The Ring Sensor is Interlink's solution for capturing position in compact applications. The

sensor's touch, moisture resistant surface can be used with a finger, stylus, or glove; even in

harsh environments. The Ring Sensor simplifies input design, saves critical room, and helps

save battery life. A battery operated demo is available. Call us or visit our website for more

information.
