R2026b
Rotational and translational motion, torque, force sensor blocks

This library contains mechanical rotational and translational sensors. These blocks output physical signals, not regular Simulink® signals. For information on how to connect these blocks to Simulink scopes or other Simulink blocks, see Connecting Simscape Diagrams to Simulink Sources and Scopes.
