== Description ==
The '''Absolute Analog Value''' component in Visuino is designed to convert an analog signal to its absolute value. This is particularly useful when you only need the magnitude of the signal, disregarding its direction (positive or negative). The component eliminates the negative portion of the signal, providing the absolute (positive) value as output.  
The **Absolute Analog Value** component converts an analog input to its absolute value.
This ensures that the output is always positive, regardless of whether the input is positive or negative.


Use cases for this component include scenarios where you want to monitor the absolute value of a sensor reading, measure distances, or control actuators based on the absolute magnitude of an input signal.
It is particularly useful when you only need the magnitude of a signal while ignoring its direction. 
For example, it can be used to monitor sensor readings, measure distances, or drive actuators where only the absolute strength of the input matters.

Summary

Outputs the absolute (positive) value of an analog input signal.

Description

The **Absolute Analog Value** component converts an analog input to its absolute value. This ensures that the output is always positive, regardless of whether the input is positive or negative.

It is particularly useful when you only need the magnitude of a signal while ignoring its direction. For example, it can be used to monitor sensor readings, measure distances, or drive actuators where only the absolute strength of the input matters.
