  • Magnetic position sensor system and method
    Patent number: 11098996
    Abstract: A position sensor system for measuring a position of a target movable outside a plane, the system comprising: a first magnetic sensor and a second magnetic sensor fixedly arranged in the plane and spaced apart by a distance; the first respectively second magnetic sensor adapted for measuring at least one first respectively second in-plane magnetic field component in the plane to obtain at least a first respectively second value; a controller connected to the sensors for obtaining the values, and adapted for determining the out-of-plane position as a function of the values and of the predefined distance. A method is provided for determining the position.
