Abstract

Systems, devices, and methods of controlling valve actuation using an inertial sensor are provided. The system can include a valve including an inlet, an outlet, and a plug positioned between the inlet and the outlet. The plug can include a stem configured to translate or rotate in a first direction causing the plug to open the valve or to translate or rotate in a second direction causing the plug to close the valve. The system can also include an actuator coupled to the stem, an inertial sensor coupled to the stem, and a controller coupled to the inertial sensor and to the actuator. The controller can cause the controller to receive sensor data from the inertial sensor and to generate control signals provided to the actuator. The control signals can cause the actuator to translate or rotate the stem in the first direction or the second direction.
