Global Magnetic Sensors for Automotive: Disruptive Technology and Increasing Customer Personalization & Customization for Automobiles Is Expected to Drive the Market
Magnetic sensors offer several key advantages they allow contactless and, consequently, wear-free measurement of mechanical quantities like angle of rotation and angular speed. They are robust and inexpensive to manufacture. The steering wheel sensor developed for the electronic stability program (ESP) prevents vehicles from spinning. Use of magnetic sensors for automotive demonstrated, that the inherent limitation of the AMR-effect to an 180° angular range can be overcome by using a switchable magnetic field generated inside the sensor element. The technology...
