sensorless

Lacking detection hardware

Sensorless describes a system or device that operates without sensors, typically by inferring information through indirect means.

In engineering, sensorless motor control determines rotor position through electrical measurements rather than physical sensors: sensorless brushless motors reduce cost and complexity.

The term appears mainly in technical contexts.
