Abstract
A method and system for determining a position of a linearly translating member. The method may comprise transmitting an excitation into a linearly translating member through one or more couplers from an acoustic device disposed in an outer housing, recording a reflected excitation from the linearly translating member with the acoustic device, and identifying a position of the linearly translating member with respect to the acoustic device. The system may comprise an outer housing, a linearly translating member disposed within the outer housing, an acoustic device disposed in the outer housing and configured to transmit an excitation at various frequencies and various amplitudes and record returned excitation frequencies and amplitudes and time of travel, and an information handling system in communication with the acoustic device.
