Which of the following statements is false?

 1. Incremental optical encoder with one photodetector cannot be used to determine the rotation angle directly. 

 2. The only way to read an encoder pattern is to use optical sensors like photodetectors.

 3. Incremental optical encoder with two photodetectors can be used to determine the direction of the rotation.

 4. Absolute encoders use a more complex disk pattern and multiple photodetectors to read out the angular position directly.

 5. Incremental optical encoder with one photodetector cannot be used to determine the direction of the rotation.
