Resolver Position Feedback for Autonomous Vehicle Control
Autonomous vehicles — both military unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) and commercial self-driving platforms — require absolute position feedback that is immune to the electrical noise, vibration, and environmental extremes that optical encoders cannot withstand. Brushless resolvers provide the inherent ruggedness and absolute position sensing that autonomous control systems demand.
CCC manufactures both the resolver transducers and the digital conversion electronics, providing a single-source solution for autonomous vehicle position feedback from sensor to network.
The Challenge
Autonomous vehicles operate in uncontrolled environments where dust, water, temperature extremes, and shock can destroy conventional position sensors. The control system requires absolute position knowledge at power-on with no homing sequence, plus continuous real-time feedback during operation.
CCC's Solution
CCC's brushless resolver transducers provide absolute position feedback with no electronics at the sensing point — making them inherently immune to environmental extremes. Our high-accuracy converter modules digitize resolver signals with up to 20-bit resolution for integration with autonomous navigation and motor control systems. AI-enhanced algorithms improve position accuracy beyond traditional conversion limits.
