Abstract
An aircraft landing gear includes a stationary element and one or more movable elements which can move relative to the stationary element between a first position and a second position, and one or more shape sensors, connected to an electronic processor arranged to deduce the position of the movable element of the shape of the shape sensor. The shape sensor includes a first section rigidly connected to the stationary element and a second section rigidly connected to the movable element so that the first section and the second section are immobile with respect to the stationary element and the movable element respectively, and are movable relative to one another.
