Abstract
A state machine includes a stator assembly arranged to generate a rotating electromagnetic field in response to a control signal and a rotor assembly, positioned adjacent to the stator assembly, arranged to rotate in response to the rotating electromagnetic field. A sensor is arranged to detect an angular position of the rotor assembly and output sensor data based on the angular position of the rotor assembly. A controller is arranged to receive the sensor data and adjust the control signal based on the angular position of the rotor assembly to adjust a torque of associated with the rotor assembly when the state machine functions as a motor or to adjust a power output from the stator assembly when the state machine functions as a generator.
