The Sensors and Magnetics Laboratory is engaged in the development of new magnetic sensors and magnetometers, and new measuring and calibration systems, mainly for space and safety technology.
- Basic research in the field of magnetic sensors and magnetometers are used to understand complex physical phenomena relevant to new engineering applications. One example is the research on the properties of nanocrystalline materials.
- Applied research is used for the targeted development of new principles. Many of our ideas come from the area where basic and applied research meet. Some have even been patented, as you need a new system to search for min or a new coil-less fluxgate sensor.
- The development of new sensors and measurement systems are also used in specific applications, particularly to solve the problems of our industrial customers. One example is the navigation system for horizontal drilling, magnetic sensors for minesweepers or NDT equipment for the oil industry.
