Speed and RPM sensors measure the number of revolutions or distance traveled over time. There are two main types - relative sensors like inductive and magnetostatic sensors, and absolute sensors like gyroscopes. Inductive sensors use Faraday's law to generate a voltage proportional to magnetic flux change. Magnetostatic sensors include Hall switches and elements. Gyroscopes measure rotation around an axis. Common sensors are inductive engine sensors, Hall wheel sensors, and MEMS yaw rate sensors.
