Claim Text:
1. A composite capacitive displacement measurement system comprising: one or more composite components (STATORs) that are stationary with respect to a predetermined system, and each of the composite components comprising: one or more composite components (MOVERs) that are mobile and move in a controlled manner with respect to the predetermined corresponding components that are stationary relative to the system, wherein the controlled manner of moving is facilitated by bearings that allow for travel in a direction parallel to surface of the electrodes and also in a direction parallel to the alternating direction of the electrodes, and each of the components comprising: one or more circuits comprising: further comprising variable capacitors created by electrodes of the capacitive series with elementary electrodes of ground series, where the capacitors from electrodes of different STATORs are arranged in one or more superposition configurations; and one or more corresponding capacitive series of electrodes on the different STATORs are substantially aligned, and one or more corresponding ground series of electrodes on MOVERs are substantially aligned.
