Position sensors can be linear, angular, and rotatory. As the names entail that the different types of sensors are used to measure the relationship with the object and the environment in a circular, angular motion or in a line motion. Each kind of sensors has their different type of applications in different situations. One of the most important uses of position sensors is under sea monitoring. The oil leaks undersea are the failure of the position sensors. The position sensors are installed undersea for the safe monitoring the performance. A number of the position sensors are installed undersea; failure of one can lead chain reactions, ending into an environmental disaster.

Robotics is getting a big benefit from the position sensors. Nowadays cars and machines are being built by the help of robots. Electro acoustic transducers are installed for serving purposes like scoring displays in bowling places, surveying system as a monitoring unit of every movement in houses. Some highly developed position sensors are even used in military. In the higher altitudes, better specifically in space, they are used for space travel in various complex appearances. With the increase of acquaintance of humans with the space, the position sensors are also becoming an integral part of it.
