  • Method for determining and tracking the position and orientation of a magnetic field sensor
    Publication number: 20040186681
    Abstract: With a method for determining and tracking a changing, true position and orientation of a magnetic field sensor within a three-dimensional magnetic field space from the values measured by the magnetic field sensor, the magnetic field space is structured in a preceding calibration mode into a three-dimensional grid with equidistant grid points. All values measured by the magnetic field sensor, which is placed successively and with constant orientation in all of the grid points, are then stored in a calibration table as calibration positions and calibration orientations allocated to the real positions of the grid points in the magnetic field space.
