2. MEMS magnetic field sensor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MEMS_magnetic_field_sensor

   A MEMS magnetic field sensor is a small-scale microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) device for detecting and measuring magnetic fields (magnetometer). Many of these operate by detecting effects of the Lorentz force : a change in voltage or resonant frequency may be measured electronically, or a mechanical displacement may be measured optically.

3. Magnetometer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetometer

   The Earth's magnetic field at a given point is a vector. A magnetic compass is designed to give a horizontal bearing direction, whereas a vector magnetometer measures both the magnitude and direction of the total magnetic field. Three orthogonal sensors are required to measure the components of the magnetic field in all three dimensions.

4. Hall effect sensor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hall_effect_sensor

   A Hall effect sensor (also known as a Hall sensor or Hall probe) is any sensor incorporating one or more Hall elements, each of which produces a voltage proportional to one axial component of the magnetic field vector B using the Hall effect (named for physicist Edwin Hall).

   array of magnetic field sensors is used; Magnetometers ... (X-Y) or 3D (X-Y-Z). Moreover, measurements of magnetic field may be absolute, differential or gradiometric.

7. Principles of motion sensing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principles_of_Motion_Sensing

   Magnetic sensors, commonly referred to as compasses, detect magnetic fields and measure their absolute position relative to Earth's magnetic north and nearby magnetic materials. Information from magnetic sensors can also be used to correct errors from other sensors such as accelerometers.
