Abstract
An instrumented roller bearing, in particular for an electrical steering wheel (12), comprises an outer component (1) and an inner component (6) whereof one is mobile in rotation relative to the other which is fixed, through at least a row of rolling elements (14) arranged between the components, and elements for detecting (22, 23, 31) the rotating parameters of the rotary component. The bearing further comprises electronic members (34) for processing signals emitted by the detecting elements and electronic elements (35) for controlling at least an actuator electrically connected to the device, advantageously arranged on a printed circuit wafer (33) fixed in rotation.
