    This document discusses linear variable differential transformers (LVDTs), which are sensors that use mutual inductance to measure displacement. It explains that LVDTs work by having an amplitude measurement that shows displacement and a phase measurement that shows direction. The document also notes that LVDTs offer benefits like high precision, complete electrical shielding, and ability to operate in extreme conditions.
