Abstract

See full text

The process and system for locating the position and orientation of an implement in space wherein a varying magnetic field responsive component (14) such as a coil is positioned upon the implement. A magnetic field source (12) excitable from an a.c. source derives alternating flux fields which are moved along or parallel to coordinate axes established at a reference plane. The coordinate position of the sensor is derived by determining the positions of minima and maxima flux linkage during magnetic field source movement.
