ABSTRACT:
A steering assembly for a vehicle, including an input shaft connectable to a steering input system, an output shaft connectable to a steering output system, a torsion device connecting the input shaft and the output shaft and allowing relative rotation movement between the input shaft and the output shaft based upon a torque applied to the input shaft or the output shaft, a first sensor of sensing relative rotational movement of the input shaft and the vehicle, and a second sensor for sensing relative rotational movement of the output shaft and the vehicle.
