Two feedback loop better than one (PDF)
A motioncontrol method using two feedback sensors and PID functions divided between their loops ensures superior accuracy. Dual-loop control systems seems to be an ideal way to increase productivity, accuracy, and dynamic performance. It can also lower costs, simplify designs, and reduce wear.

An Interference-Based Incremental Optical Encoder
An interferometric technique allows an incremental optical encoder to read light signals transmitted through slots as narrow as 1 micron on the code disc, greatly increasing precision of the device.
