This paper presents a novel approach for training and output prediction of data of a Linear variable differential transformer (LVDT). LVDT is a commonly used device used in laboratories for measuring linear displacements in specific situations. This article considers application of Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) for learning and output estimation of LVDT. Real-time experiments were conducted and results were collected for training of ANNs. The Regression results and outputs verified the learning and prediction capability of ANNs.
