ABSTRACT:
A rotating state detection apparatus comprising, an optical device for detecting coherent beams toward a plurality of positions on a diffraction grating present along a rotational direction of a rotating object, an interfering device for superposing diffraction beams of a specific order with each other, the diffraction beams being diffracted at the plurality of different positions on the diffraction grating, and light-receiving device for receiving the superposed beams obtained by the interfering device, and for photoelectrically converting interference fringes formed by the superposed beams.
