1. Apparatus for determining the angular position of a member with respect to a reference comprising:

  • a mounting plate;

    a first sensor operatively attached to said mounting plate;

    a second sensor operatively attached to said mounting plate and positioned in a spaced-apart relationship with respect to said first sensor;

    a disk member positioned adjacent said first and second sensors and being rotatable with respect to said mounting plate and said first and second sensors; and

    means for producing a waveform,rotation of said disk member with respect to said mounting plate causing the actuation of said first and second sensors producing output signals substantially coinciding with a first point and a second point on said waveform.
