The types of magnetic sensors that are currently available. How the magnetic sensors work. Applications for the different magnetic sensors. Position sensors enable a variety of functions and controls ...

University of Warwick researchers have built a new diamond-based magnetic field sensor that could be used to better find tumors through tracing magnetic fluid injected in the body. A cancer diagnosis ...

Researchers have designed a new Optically Pumped Magnetometer (OPM) sensor for magnetoencephalography (MEG). The sensor is smaller and more robust in detecting magnetic brain signals and ...

The latest reports by tipsters show that Google Pixel 7 may come with a Hall effect sensor to identify magnetic fields. This sensor is also used for flip covers. Google still hasn’t pulled back the ...

Sensors help microprocessor-based systems find their bearings. Where would embedded systems be without them? Sensors provide the windows through which microprocessor-based systems can observe their ...

image: MIT researchers have developed a method to enable quantum sensors to detect any arbitrary frequency, with no loss of their ability to measure nanometer-scale features. Quantum sensors detect ...

New MFxM magnetic proximity switches detect magnetic fields over large distances up to 60 mm. These sensors can be used effectively in applications where the target is located behind a wall of ...

A miniature magnetic sensor using a tiny cloud of atoms has successfully tracked a human heartbeat for the first time. In a new study, researchers from the National Institute of Standards and ...

Researchers used an ultrathin graphene 'sandwich' to create a tiny magnetic field sensor that can operate over a greater temperature range than previous sensors, while also detecting miniscule changes ...
